Hi, I've been seeing this item on ebay, but not sure about authenticity of this watch.
In my opinion, the diamond bezel seems to be aftermarket, but watch itself looks real.
Ask for your help

Aftermarket diamonds, watch seems real but I am on phone so can't say 100%. |

Yes, but you need an account to see the pics and I don't have an eBay account and I'm not planning on having one  . Normally I can see them without a log in. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met behulp van Tapatalk |

This is the mob that sold that fake navitimer that there was much discussion about recently. This one is fake too. |

I suspect the ebay seller geniunely thinks it is real and I wouldn't be surprised if the chronomat came from the same source as the earlier navitimer. Someone is offloading these fakes through this ebay pawn shop. Incidentally, the navitimer fake is now gone. Good work guys! |

Are B01 Chronomats really being faked? This looks real at first glance (on my phone). How can you tell it's fake? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk There are fakes of nearly everything... I think one of the tells are the depth of the date-wheel. On black dial/black date-wheels, it's harder to tell. |

Yes the sunken date wheel is the big tell. Also, because the fakes use cloned Valjoux 7750 movements, the subdials are slightly too far apart. |

It's definitely fake, and also beat to hell. |

Is this chronomat real? The fonts in the sub dial seem sketchy. I gravely appreciate your assistance and help in not wasting thousands of dollars.
