Real gold Motors with fake Crosswind papers set.
Weird situation to report.

Real K25362. I'd say aftermarket bezel. Fake papers. Description lifted from another site (says black dial).

Not reporting as watch is real. Caveat emptor.

Just look at the quality of the diamonds and the setting. Producing a bezel in that quality is a crime! The stones are not even set at all. And if the diamonds are after market, why should it be a limited edition by BfB? And why should anyone start the auction at such a low price. I would vote for fake and goldplated...

And just to be sure, have a look at the sellers feedback: Would You think of selling a golden BfB with diamonds as first item on Ebay? This watch cannot be authentic!

I told the seller about the fake paperwork and he was a bit casual about. So it would not surprise me if this watch is not quite right.

It's definitely a real gold Motors - which is why it's an LE, but there is certainly something a bit off with the listing.

It is not a limited edition. Only a special edition. Limited edition would have it written on the back and also a limitation number like 258/500...
