it has quartz spelled one way on the front and spelled this way on the back. quratz. presuming with the spelling its a fake.

::facepalm1::

You really had to ask if it is real? The least amount of research would have answered the question.

More like a little bit of common sense was needed.

I think I'm gonna buy this beautiful seamaster 300m. Is it fake? I don't think so but I'm no expert.

Hey Guys,

looking at this Seamaster and would love your opinion on it. Seller says he purchased it from a local store, I've yet to contact them for authentication but really love your input on it.

Fine but a "reserved" fine your not showing the "right bits" case back clearer please coding in clasp please. HOWEVER you can just see on lug serial honestly 98% FINE (can't say 100% because no one has seen EVERY fake...) AND you never know could have a genuine case and an aftermarket bloody movement but honestly looks fine

The presence of an on lug serial number does not verify a watch.

Hi abroad520

I will show you a few more close up pics of the questionable areas on the movement.

The picture above shows the top of the movement.

The picture above show the engraving 18 jewels.

The picture above shows the use of plastic on one of the components.

The picture above shows the re-engraved serial number 27773342 which omega quote as belonging to a different caliber and model. You can also see a poorly engraved 861 on the base plate without the Omega signature. I hope the pictures help highlight the forgery involved. Stay vigilant.

HOLY CRAP, PLASTIC MACHINED PARTS!!!!

It reads that way. I blame the vagueness of English Language.

Just got my new Speedmaster, my first omega. It is a FOIS edition. I ordered it off Amazon through a company called watchsavings, just wanted opinions before I remove the "do not remove" tag. Thanks in advance! The watch looks to me to be 100% authentic, But again this is my first experience.
