Looks real to me. The subdial spacing and markings look ok for a Hercules. The fact its listed as battery powered is odd. I mailed the seller about it but didn't get a reply.

Looks ok to me. I just wonder about the seller who can't spend 12p a photo, to sell a £1000 watch :shock:

Interesting - the only other thing sold of value by this seller got negative feedback.

I'd be careful - while it is real - lack of photo's, proper description, documents history etc would make me steer clear.

Watch in the photo is real. The sub-dial markings/spacing are wrong on the Hercules fakes I've seen.
