No details on this watch. Is it real or fake?

Maybe it was using Patek’s 240 Q movement. Hence, Qalendar.

DEPLOYANT* YOU UNELITE SCUMBAG

Maybe what was meant was how the watch was deployed thru the auction. Had it not been a government auction ... 😀

This is not the first time that someone in the poster’s position has taken exception simply because what they read in the replies, was not what they wanted to read! Even a person who knows nothing about watches should have seen the very noticeable clues that it was a fake. Too bad!

I can understand how some people could take a curt response as "rude", when someone asks- "how do I look in these jeans" and the response is "fat"- you're gonna hurt some feelings. But if you're asking the question in the first place, be prepared for a blunt answer that you may not want to hear.

OK thanks for letting me know. I didn't know anything about the watch at all. I came here for friendly advice after being directed here and was met with a sarcastic bunch of rude wankers. I appreciate the helpful comments. However, being so rude in your little elite group is actually distasteful and just YUCK. Middle aged men posting like your on a Facebook gossip group. JUST CONSIDER YOUR RUDE WORDS. I genuinely have no clue about watches but after joining the group I'm glad to say I still know nothing. Fantastic.

You should feel lucky to have received answers from the best OMEGA experts on this planet, but you are complaining?

Yeah, tell this to my wife!

OP: I didn't notice anyone being rude to you. If you're offended by sarcasm, the internet may not be the place for you. Every time I've posted a new thread on OF I've been met with nothing but kindness and people trying to help. That being said, I do follow some personal guidelines if help is needed because that helps others assist me with my question.

That'd rude. As I've SAID MANY TIMES I have no Clue what's real or not. What's definite tho is a bunch of dickheads thinking passive aggressive replies are nessacary. Maybe you'll consider that not everyone has knowledge on what's "obviously" fake. This group forum is actually so pretentious it's disgusting.

You are welcome to the free advice. We are sorry it didn't tally with your hopes and expectations. You are clearly angry that laying out big coin on something you knew nothing about hasn't worked out. That is to be regretted but slinging around insults helps you how exactly?

ps I have no idea of the t's and c's of a NZ police auction, but I wonder whether the sale of fakes is something they would condone, since from one POV the very item should be contraband. Would they also auction parcels of seized drugs? Clearly not. Maybe quit bitching at us and speak to those who have actually caused the issue, the seller.

I read through the posts three times looking for all the rude words the “rude wankers” used and the only person I could find saying anything distasteful was you.

You asked for free advice - you received several honest answers and some suggestions on how to return it. What else did you possibly expect to receive?
All the comments and messages I received basically condisending me, saying I must've known its fake, because Obviously it's fake. Po
Yeah, tell this to my wife!

Thanks everyone who commented without sarcasm. I honestly never would've known the spelling was off or the design was wrong. Just know, there's nicer ways to suggest that there's obvious fake pointers becos it's not so OBVIOUS to everyone as you EXPERTS suspect. Just feel slightly annoyed that I came here anyhow. Again thankyou to helpful commentary. And to the sarcastic, rude replies: you're super cool guy! Really what a cool person. Your so funny and sarcastic. What a guy.

I welcomed you yesterday when you accidentally posted on another thread. It was actually quite funny the way it happened. This forum is fun. Give it a chance.

Omega Forums is a gathering place for collectors. OF is also often misinterpreted to be a free valuation and/ or validation service -- which it is not. That being said, many of the knowledgeable members here do actually answer questions for those who drop in an want to know (after purchase!) if a watch is okay.

And there it is. At least I can accept I was irate after being stiffed and shunned by commenting. Of course the internet can be annoying but little did I expect from this group. However Dennis concluded my time here on an high. That's why a lot of people would call stooping down to my level. I'm irate cos I spent money on a fake watch and didn't like how the news was broken to me. You, Dennis, are just an angry online forum guy. Noone cares about your comments. Lol.

Well OF is helpful minus the middle ages going thru crisis thinking sarcasm is everyone's cup of tea and will be met with timid giggles and winky face emojis.
