    Hi All,

    I've read through the guides on spotting a 2254.50 SMP fake and in general this seems to check out -- helium valve is in the right place, I think the crown guard looks right. I'm concerned about the lume dot color and the rounded bracelet pin slots, both of which seem wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated before I drive a couple hours each way and attempt to find a jeweler who'll authenticate it. It's definitely a little beat up on the bezel, but I'm ok with that.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    And I forgot the one picture that shows the caseback.

    Regardless of authenticity, I would want better photos than those!
