The only problem I see is that the seller's address on the receipt is visible and it has a sapphire crystal 😉

·Here's one for the group. Found this on ebay. Not much information in the posting and just four awful pictures.

·First, the ar coating just looks bad. Second the Seamaster text is the wrong color for this model. Third, the date window should have a black background. There’s probably a lot more, but that’s what first stood out to me.

·Y yxzyHow can you tell the sapphire crystal? The milky circle right? Does it look like there’s some scratches in the circle aswell?
Just shadows not scratches - but I prefer hesalite so much over sapphire that I have 5 speedy and all have hesalite, including two hesalite with a sapphire display back.

·It looks like Hesalite to me, but I can see where larryganz is coming from. The reference number also corresponds to Hesalite.

·The date wheel being white is a dead giveaway. It's 100% fake. Why is there a 24-hour subdial? And two 60-minute subdials? You gotta be kidding me.

The etching on the back caught my eye: no planet ocean “globe” and the “planet” and “ocean” are not centered between the depressions. The chrono’s second hand is also too short. Thanks for looking at it and (hopefully) helping save someone money and hassle.

·^ Don't know anything about this model, but let's just say a few seconds on Google has pointed out the the date font around the dial is wrong and that it's supposed to have an applied Ω logo, not printed. Maybe it's an older model or something, idk.

·Hi guys!
First time post, long time lurker.
This Seamaster Deep Black just popped up for sale.
Been looking and comparing images, and by now my eyes are playing tricks on me 😁
The seller sent me a few pics, and im spotted the alignment on the valve, checks, the luminous dot on the bezel seems centered, etc.
Any and all inputs would be more than welcome.
