Ugghh. Disgusting dial. Imagine what the movement's like!

 

Ok, here's one I haven't seen before:

A slightly better, more convincing fake for it's time. The stamping on the outside case back and the S in Seamaster were dead giveaways for me.

 

Seller has already replied and thanked me for the information. Even asked my opinion on a lady's Omega he had listed, which is fake too. Expect these will be removed shortly.

Well, I thought they sincere Seller ended the lady's Omega which was listed with BIN of $2500, but yes, I noticed they only revised the men's Omega. Apparently enough people reported this item/seller...item has been removed.

 

Good, I just reported it again myself.

 

I would like to suggest to moderator that this thread be placed below "Recommended Vintage Omega Watches On Ebay (not Inquiries)". Most of here have enough knowledge to help keep places such as eBay a more safe/fun place for the newbies and non-collectors. The more people that report items, the quicker eBay should remove. Just my 2 cents.

 

There is this thread.

Fantastic thread, but serves different purpose. Respectfully...don't know how many newbies would even find this forum, much less this thread.

 

1st "platinum" fake I've seen! Reported to eBay.

Didn't know platinum corroded like that!

 

Done

 

Why is this one still up? 7 bids...someone is going to be disappointed! Messaged seller, but apparently they are not as sincere as their description....

"I strive to provide honest and accurate information for all of our auctions.

It is not my intention to misinterpret or deceive."​

For future reference how does one report this type of thing to ebay?

 

There's a "REPORT ITEM" on the right hand side of the screen.

 

After analyzing hundreds of counterfeit item reports I've made, the likelihood of an item being removed goes down drastically IF the seller accepts returns, doesn't make it right but this seems to be one of eBay's justifications.

 

My first report how exciting!


EDIT: Geez, seven people bid on this.

 

Please report this one. Have messaged seller suggesting they have it checked by watchmaker and have metal content confirmed.

Reported, font looks off too ?

 

Everything is off about this one, doesn't even remotely resemble anything made by Omega
