    Even I can tell that's fake!! Don't you get the impression that the seller perhaps doesn't know though? Look at feedback and other items etc?

    Reported.

    The ONLY part of this which is genuine is the movement, the rest is newly made counterfeit parts.

    I'm only just starting to get a handle on fake seamasters but the big tells here are the 'pointy A' on the case back, no surround to the date window and the small minute markers behind the lume plots. Is that right? As well as the fact that the hands look like my dog made them??!

    The markings on the inside of the case back are even more of a giveaway.

    The fact they spelled "CERTIFIED" as "CERTIFED" on the case back should be an easy tell...

    Oh my god! I didn't even notice that. In that case, I retract my earlier quote suggesting that the seller, who claims to have owned the watch for 10 years, was ignorant to the fact that it's a fake.
