So, is this a fake?

No top-time on dial.

not a fake, but an incorrect dial in a basically authentic piece.
delusionally priced even for a perfect specimen.

seller has been relisting this for two years or more.

Seller also claims the watch is automatic. Told him 2 years ago what was wrong and what he could have done about it (the correct dials then available are now gone) and he never even bothered to update the listing.

funny to read what he thinks about himself:
"About The Seller: Brad Mugar is a collector and leading expert in the field of high end, fine wrist watches, timepieces, collectibles, diamonds, rare coins, and jewelry. He has over 30 years of experience as a worldwide watch trader and is a professional in this field. He is a member of IWJG and NAWCC; International Watch and Jewelry Guild, and National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors."
:shock:
