To Trev: It's not obvious to someone who's passion is not checking to see what time it is.
To Trev and ulackfocus: Greed? Really? Is that what you call it when Omega charges you 10k for a new one? Ever heard of the American Dream? Shit man, I thought that I had just gotten lucky when I bought the thing. Considering the person who previously owned it, I never thought it could be fake. And yes, now I realize that the word Missions was misspelled. Excuse me for overlooking that when the most expensive watch I've ever owned was a Fossil.
By the way, I notice I'm the only one on here who's avatar actually shows a picture of my own face with my kids. You guys are snobs and total jerks. I asked for a little help and I get torn apart by a couple of guy who probably look and act like Niles Crane.
Look what I'll do is remove that from the title and send it back to the general forum since the sale is no longer active and I'll leave it at that.

And for anyone who thinks I was being greedy by making a large profit, who are you to decide how much profit I should be able to make? Had I paid $1,000 for it and sold it for $1,400, that would have been perfectly fine.
Oh, I'm sorry. Did I threaten a lawsuit? I merely stated I didn't want my name trashed because you would rather jump to conclusions than get your facts straight, kinda like the last post you made. You automatically assume I'm threatening a lawsuit. I said nothing like that.
For the record the majority of us are just ordinary guys, salesman, white collar workers, IT guys and the like, if we had British accents and trust funds we might not be so upset at the idea of people losing money to counterfeiting, its the fact that we are regular guys that work really hard to save up and purchase watches we love that makes it so abhorrent.

Let the buyers decide what it's worth. That's why I put it up for bid, to get a fair market value.
And, I know now that it's a fake, but I was basing the start price off what others had actually sold for. When I thought the watch was real, I thought I was starting it too cheap.
I'm not really sure what else to say other than, I have learned alot about counterfeit Speedmasters in the last 24 hrs, and this one will not be for sale again.
