    I heard that some dog leg connie counterfeit are made in China... and I think this is the one!

    it’s up at 1350 usd. I think it smells fishy considering its dial composition with fat font, wrong movement, poor case/back finish and weirdly simple squared date window.

    Did I make a right diagnosis?

    Really? I thought it looked correct for 168.065.

    Perhaps extremely is too strong and maybe it is just me.
    But the text, while close, looks too heavy and a little off.
    I certainly could be wrong here.

    The text does look heavy as you say.
    What looks off to me is the position of the applied Omega logo - slightly to the right.
    To make a proper judgement better pics are needed.

    Here are two pictures of this reference:

    They are the same watch! Yes, this is my example.

    You really have to have it in your hand to really know if it’s a redial or not.
