Hi all. Bought this online. The bezel is missing. What’s the thoughts on the movement real or replica please!? I’m swayed towards replica but would like confirmation please. Thank you.

Movement and clasp are fake so rest of the watch most likely is fake too.

Sorry but I have to ask a beginner question here. While none of this looked correct to me, what about the movement shows it’s a fake?
Is it just the wrong caliber or is there some giveaways (other than searching serial) that I don’t know how to spot yet?
Any help here is always appreciated!

The color of the balance wheel should be enough.

Actually it's quite frightening isn't it? 🙁
I have to say I thought the hands look to have been fitted by someone wearing emery paper gloves.

You’re right. I totally missed that! Thank you!

Besides many of the inner jewels missing pivots and the balance wheel colour. Take note that newer fakes use a black balance wheel now. Also you can spot the regulator under the balance bridge which Omega does not use as the balance wheel is free sprung. The fakes are not using free sprung balance wheels (yet), and they like to hide the regulator under the balance bridge to trick people, particularly with the 8800 series fake movements.
