Look at the anchor in the first pic: is it real?

oopps

looks very real (case / dial) but chrono hand is replaced by a non original one
might be more issues with it

Sorry Dracha, I looked closer after and it does have issues, but still not sure if its fake. The top subdial hand is definitely a replacement, and a bad one at that.

Fundamentally real, but not completely original.

Anyone know why the case back serial number has been redacted? I am assuming the worst in my thoughts.

thats (IMO) a silly practice some people use, I think they want to prevent fakers to use their serial numbers
