    Hi all,

    I was watching this one last week and at the end decided not bid,

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/162405142453Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    Im no expert but the case seems to be made of something other than SS, looks like a cheap metal. Also the Lollipop hand's chrome trim seems to be fatter than normal (which is common mistake in fake SM300) and I asked the seller if he could see any number or marks between the lugs and he said there were no marks at all.

    Just want to make sure if this is a fake or if it was the real deal,

    Cheers

    Dial is legit from a 1964, minute hand and movement are good - I have a LOT of reservations on the case. Engravings on CB are fake IMO - there is a real one but not engraved like that.

    I would have bought it if it was real
