I was given this watch and I don’t know what to make of it. Any help is appreciated. Would love some recommendations on what to do to verify it.

The real version of this watch is all titanium, so I imagine this one is pretty hefty. The bezel on the watch in question is very poorly executed, the real one has a rubber-like insert. The real version has a transparent case back, revealing a nicely decorated, very high-tech movement.

Answer to your question: Yes. A bad one. "Given " to you by somebody who might have known.

Thousands of times people have asked if this gift watch (mostly uncles) is real. Have we had one "gift" that turned out to be authentic?

I've seen this particular watch come up at least twice, I think! It definitely have seen 007 related Pieces come up on more than one occasion.

Real ones? It's probably happened, probably been a vintage Seamaster or 80s Speedmaster

Thanks for the responses. I was given this in inheritance from my grandfathers passing. Looks like somebody took advantage of him in the past.

Or maybe he just liked the watch and the price and wasn’t bothered about the provenance

Just curious, do you know if it’s an auto or quartz movement, I don’t know what they put in the fake ones.
