Hi everyone,
I just received this strap and deployment clasp from a buyer on eBay. I’m having serious doubts about its authenticity. Anyone have any opinions?

I won't comment on the strap due to the lack of pictures but in my opinion the deployant is fake. The wings logo is the last picture is not centered at all and misaligned. I would be asking for my money back. Good Luck.

Thanks for the response. I'm fairly certain the strap itself is genuine, which is odd. In fact, the plastic packaging had the price of $175.00 (covered in white tape) on it, which is the actual cost of just the strap.

I don't think it is fake, just not the newest model.

Fake.

OEM clasps don’t have the spring bar holes on the side.

I stand corrected. Thank you for the knowledge bomb.
