Fake for me based on the quality of the logo and the stitching on the reverse, but would want someone else's take before reporting.

Model number should be 744P not 743P-definitely a fake

Fake for me, Too few stitches with too much space between them.Every strap i've looked at has over 20 stitches on the short piece. Logo appears to be drawn by a four year old.

That's true - 743p is tang version.

Reported - "Logo and stitching are not refined enough, reference number is for tang version of strap."
