Is this watch real or fake thread - aka Fake Busters!!

Guys,

I just saw a fake PO today on Ebay and I will report it. The case back gave it all away. Man, they do good job faking watches nowadays. Basically I took off my watch and compared the back to the one in the pictures.

that is an awful fake the dial looks McDonalds Toy quality... are you viewing these images on a nokia 3410?

I dare to say it looks real. Does it feel cheap or something? From pictures I would not even doubt its authentic.

I just bought it, because as compared to the normal speedmaster, the price is even lower, so I am a bit sceptical on this...

Fake 300s have a brushed crown i think. Fake clasps are all brushed and not the brushed+polished combo. At least this is what I last saw.

Guys, what do you think of this:

Well, here are my thoughts:

1)- It looks to me it is a mix of fake and original...
2)- The movement sounds fine to me but the case doesnt.
3)- The logo on the clasp looks thicker compared Original.

What you think!!

What do you think of this? Saw it amongst a guys collection photos and wondered what it was... all I can find with word searches is

Ref: 1453938

...and that just brings up a page of replica sites!

Is it a complete fake? Or am I just unlucky in identifying it? Thanks.

I like it!

Thanks.

Bloody expensive! $7.7K or something when released, now reselling at minimum 12K it seems... annoying!

Hello new members...

Welcome to the OmegaForums.net!!

I have specifically created this thread just for the newbies who come on here after they have been given a watch buy their uncle's uncle twice removed OR they have bought what you think is a legit Omega off good old flee bay!

The idea is you post your watch here and it is discussed by our panel of experts, who I might add, may say few choice words like 🤬 and 🤬 or maybe 🤬.

The will endeavour to be as blunt as possible, but getting you the answer you are looking for.

The main idea is this..

It will remove the countless new threads asking 'Is my watch fake?' or 'I was left this by my dad's dad's dad from 1860'

Any new threads will be merged in to this one as of now.

Thanks very much.

Fire away!!
