The subdials are a dead giveaway. Plus a seller with absolutely no feedback.

+3 - "Sliderule, subdials, hands and caseback are incorrect. Watch has pushers but no chronograph."

I was 99.9% sure it's a fake, just wanted to confirm. I reported it but (once again) ebay does nothing. I don't think they care. They just want their money when it sells. Funny thing is it is still active and people are still bidding. Current bidder has 1057 feedback. Maybe if more people report it ebay "might" take action?????

In fairness eBay UK are pretty quick to spike fakes which get busted on here.
