·Yes, I think it would benefit too... but if I don’t know if it is fake or not, first I should ask an opinion on a omega official boutique maybe...
Thank you
I was making the point that as there were so many variants yours looks genuine, sorry I wasn’t clearer. It would be difficult to find examples, or even pictures of, every different style of watch from this period, and as you will have seen on the vintage section of Omega’s own site many examples only have diagrams, not pictures. Many watches would also, in the intervening years, have had services when hands, dials, crowns, etc have been changed, so this also makes it tricky.
To be honest, I think you would get better answers and information from the knowledgeable members of this forum than a sales clerk in an OB.

··Vintage Omega AficionadoWhat do we think about this one, rare or fake?!
Very, very fake.
You'll probably find one here.

··Vintage Omega AficionadoHere's one that looks very clean, as in overly new, and i doubt for the current price that it is real. Maybe possibly be NOS ?
Quite real.

·Don't fall for this on wish.com - nothing on the watch is genuine, inside or out.

·Looks fine, there haven't been any really convincing copies of the Speedmaster Pro I've seen yet, and box and bits are correct.
Despite serial number being blanked out on the watch, it's still visible on the hangtag, so someone may be able to run it through the system.

·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.
The OF Management & Moderation Department.
Fire away!!
So.....
Looking to buy a Ploprof 1200
Found one on eBay ( I know, not a good place to look)
It's out of Japan
Red flags are 2 in my opinion
Description says Brand : None
And the serial number on the pictures reads
82040205
Everything I read on line ponts to a 2007 production date, this watch was introduced at Bezel world 2009 and took a few years to be sold to the public.
Went on to other sites ( Crown and caliber ) and their watch also shows 82040XXX serial number.
I'm I missing something?
Does Ploprof have a different serial number sequence ?
Is Japan selling counterfeits comon now ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

·Are Ploprof counterfeits common? Sorry, not really an answer, but as someone who would quite like a Ploprof, interested in the answers to your question.

·Is this authentic or fake? The reason why I ask is because I bought from a third party online website (watchshopping.com).
I got the whole presentation case with all the goodies along with the warranty card and the pictograms card.
Here are the pictures. Sorry for the bad quality photo.
The model # is 311.304.230.010.006 and the serial # is 7888xxxx.
The Jeweller listed on the warranty card is an AD per Omega website but I did not buy directly from them.

·Hello! There is a Seamaster 300m that I am interested in bidding on in an auction, but I am unsure of the legitimacy of this watch - no information on the card apart from 'Ben Bridge' as well as whether it is a full-size or mid-size or any other information like value?
If anyone has any information on it, that would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
