That’s a LINGS $50 pin pallet « 21 Prix » (looks like « 21 rubis » from a distance) masquerading as an Omega. They also made chronostops that look like real chronographs which people sometimes pay silly money for.

Hello all! Newb here with the itching for a vintage 321 seamaster. I realize I am nowhere near informed enough to purchase. Can any tell me if the following is fake? If so, what features made you think this? Is it an appropriate price for the condition? Again, why? Does it seem correct that it appears in decent shape, probably fairly well polished, but everything is still looking fairly even. What others things should I look for? Perhaps I should note, I would like a workhorse watch, so it has no need to be pristine. However I have an interest to learn and practice celestial navigation. Without further ado, an ebay listing to learn some

Please come back when you've learned to read.

I almost feel like if any unwitting buyer falls for some of these (at least the ones on this page), they deserve it. These are so egregiously fake!

@Foo2rama i could be wrong here, but the helium escape looks far too low. The spacing between the bottom right lug and the end link looks too far apart. Also the 30 minute marker is properly aligned on the bezel and dial, but at the 12 it is too far to the right, not properly aligned.
