Omega Speedmaster 57 real of fake...can't tell

Hello


I recently came upon a 9300 movement Speedmaster 57. Regretfully, no documents, pictograms, or box are present. The seller says that his uncle gave him the watch. I am aware that there can be warning signs.

He sent over a photo of the watch. I checked the images, and it appears that they are unique.

I indicated on one image what was bothering me. This speedmaster is not like the other speedmasters, either old or new; it is shaped differently. Please review the image.


Would you kindly share your thoughts with me?

First red flag…

It’s fake. Stay away from it and the seller.

It’s deffo a fake. No doubt. You identified the issue yourself, 2 tabs next to the blue circle ain’t right. The real watch has a free sprung balance and only one tab there.

Well done for being suspicious and asking for help. Otherwise this is a pretty convincing piece and could have fooled most people.

It's not a caliber 9300.

Arrive at "fake".
