He's also selling the fake NATO strap from the same watch
Yup. Even the nato strap is fake. Harder to spot but yup, that's fake too.

Fake Omega NTTD mesh bracelet being sold as the real deal.... Not titanium and definitely not genuine. Already at 9 bids. Someone is gonna get ripped off. I've already reported it but it's still there. Ebay is hopeless. Ends in 8hrs. What a screw up.

https://m.ebay.com.sg/itm/Titanium-mesh-bracelet-x-OMEGA-Seamaster-Diver-300M-007-Edition/224142638149?_trkparms=aid=111001&algo=REC.SEED&ao=1&asc=20160908105057&meid=a596409a0d374a26adca3340795ff950&pid=100675&rk=1&rkt=15&sd=224142638149&itm=224142638149&pmt=0&noa=1&pg=2380057&brand=OMEGA&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci:c7759680-ef6c-11ea-b9a6-74dbd180677f|parentrq:5e1288501740a9cbda3e7ef5ffffe3fc|iid:1

How do we know this is a fake nato?
Threading pattern is different. I just looked the fake up-- the bracelet version comes with the fake NATO strap on the side.

Hi All,

I’m new to the Omega and I’m wanting to pull the trigger on a Seamaster 2254.50. Being a long time vintage Seiko collector I know the world is full of franken or fake watches. Does this watch look legit? Thanks in advance.

Has just been pointed out to me on another forum that the bezel markers and numbers are misaligned with the teeth of the bezel.

Hmm...they're right. On my Seamaster, the numbers 20, 30, 40, and 50 align with the "humps" on the bezel.

Saw this on eBay. Do the hands look off to anyone? And the hour markers (especially at 12) and the lume?

That's a high-end fake.

that's a horrible, horrible fake
Reported. Thanks. It's not so long ago that I would have had no idea. Now I'm almost spotting fakes as soon as I see them, thanks to what I've learned on OF.
