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

The fake is really really well made. Always look for completely full sets, not only the cards, but the paper of the limited edition and other goodies.

Consider fake is sold with steel bracelet and nato strap. Fake Cards can be bought.

check the picture, where you can find a real seamaster 300 (not spectre) and a fake spectre

when I bought that fake spectre (by the end of 2018), I found almost 10 fakes on CHRONO24 (that fake watch was lunched at the summer of 2018). Fortunately I get my money back after 2 months

when you see them both, it’s easy. But not if you see only the fake watch

the only differences i see is this, can you confirm that your 300MC looks like that too, Thanks

Is this watch Authentic ? (pre purchase question)
priced at $2000 CAD

Looks real to me, as long as the hands are silver (and just reflecting the color black in the photo). The serial number on the tag matches the one on the watch case, the helium escape valve position is correct, the second hand red tip is faded as expected with a used model, and the lume pip on the bezel looks correct.

Yep, its just a reflection it is sliver.
I appreciate it. thank you.

Hi everyone! Looking to buy a CK2998 and wanted to get your collective wisdom on if it looks legitimate to you or not?

Evitzee

Looks legit, does it come with all boxes and papers? In the end it comes down to how much you like it and the cost. I wouldn't pay extra for the low number.

It just doesn't make a difference to most collectors. Sellers will often try to tell you a lower number is more valuable. It's a sales tactic.

I've always felt that the 1st in a numbered series, and the last number in a series were more desirable to me. When my #05/75 Nomos Timeless Limited Edition was stolen by a FedEx employee on it's way to service for being too fast when it arrived, I had the chance to jump on #75/75 as a replacement and wish I had, now that I look back on it. I took the refund instead, but the watch was going to be for my son and he really liked it (not as much as the Seamaster Pro that I gave him instead).

Hi guys,

I'm debating buying my first Omega after swapping & chopping my way into the price range.

I am debating buying this for $2450. The seller says it is a "Special Japan Only" Speedmaster. What do you think?

larryganz

It looks like a genuine 3211.50 to me. It looks high quality without anything suspicious. What other provenance is the seller offering, like serial number with matching warranty card, etc?

S Seamiesask

I just got these photos too. Apparently it comes with papers but I dont have a photo.

What do you think?
