Usually, movement is a franken from some lesser brands; case, bezel and dial are completely fake.

·I had this offered to me about 10 years ago, it was supposedly a 145.022-76, but look how thick the case back is. The movement was also a mess, serial number looked like it was from a tissot, and put together. Sorry for the pics, i took these in a hurry at a flea market when the seller was distracted, with one of the early camera phones.

·Would anyone here have bought this?
It's great to see detailed photos up close, but I think the target of these is not the gang of us here. There's gonna be some sad newbs and unsuspecting nostalgia hunters out there. It pays to know what you're getting.
Thanks for the PSA Al!
