    Other than asking in a post, is there any way to tell if a CT seller has board history or references (like the post count here)?

    Still, anyone who thinks they are buying a DON for less than $50 (Shipping included no less!) has bigger problems - don't they?
    I'm not a speedmaster guy but I'd imagine anyone who is in the market for a DON (having the matching speedy) knows what a DON costs, no?

    But it is far from a DON... Look at the 70...
    Let's call a cat a cat... Even if it is a fake cat...

    The seller on e-bay has already sold 175 of them.
    Fess up who has bought one .
    Seriously thou it shows that as the price of these rises so will the probability of good fakes entering the market.

    But none of them are close to be a DON bezel... I don't even see the problem here

    the whole font is off, tach is wrong, the 70 is off.....easy to tell but thought I would share with all to be extra cautious out there.

    Fake bezel and fake packaging...that part number is correct for a modern replacement bezel. Of course as noted Omega doesn't sell inserts, but whole bezels.

    It's not a DON and doesn't look... it's a aftermarket one

    EBay has lots of them even with colours choice
