Years of practice! :lol:

The gold tourbillon at the bottom is the obvious give away. #1 on my tips for spotting replicas page.

I'm nowhere near as good as most people on here...in some cases I really am not sure, but that particular model is one of the most commonly (and most poorly) copied. Virtually nothing on it is correct, but the botched logo and tourbillon was a huge red flag. It's MSRP is massive, and production figures on it were (unsurprisingly) low...it seems for every real one you see there are 100 fakes! :cry:

In the case of tourbillons it's more so for every real one you see there are 1,000's of fakes.
