Hi Forum friends!

Auctions are always fun, and sometimes we get excited…
BUT -
If you are looking at this watch, and might be tempted to try and win it - AVOID this one!
It is an assembled watch with a fake dial!!
And it has been around for a few years...

Stay Frosty Gents!

Nothing much to tell Jochen....The dial does not exist (as a Heuer)!

There is one reference (maybe more...?), that has a similar text, the 510523.

And here is an MG (Thanks Rich Crosthwaite for the lovely pictures!)

I do like that strap though, Any idea who makes it? Atelier de …? Also, I have a Le Jour in this case.

A couple of months ago, I saw that someone paid £1,200 for what I had believed to be a fake vintage Omega Seamaster 120 divers watch.

To my eyes, the problems were obvious. So I concluded that either I was wrong or someone thought the watch worth owning anyway.

No doubting that this watch is ‘incorrect’ so might it be that more than one bidder thought it worth owning anyway?
