    I'm no modern PO pro......but this cannot be legit, right? Look at the omega symbol and tell me what you think please.

    Yes, that is a counterfeit. Damn, if it wasn't for the text and logo it could have fooled me. The 2500-models is a risky buy second hand.

    It looks genuine to me. The HE valve is the correct size. The replicas are always too big. Also the pearl in the bezel is correct.

    The omega logo looks fine on my iPhone.

    Also the sticker on the case back says a lot.

    Sorry chaps but I think it is real.

    Either way that's a genuine strap. It looks more right than wrong to me.

    What about the Logo or text made you think this was counterfeit?

    It is so very genuine as far as that picture goes. I have a 2201.50 and just compared and everything looks the same up to the font and spacing of the different aspects of the dial. Plus this retailer wouldn't have such a good rating and so many watches being sold on ebay
