    I'm traveling in Cambodia where in a market full of fakes i found this on a small shop for a ridiculous amount. Could it be real?

    Sorry for the crappy phone shots, I'll take better ones later

    Hey, i just picked this up from a number of non working heads, i figure i would ask. I'm familiar with omegas not pateks so the worst thing was for it to become a practice watch repair piece.

    A long time ago on a forum far, far away I had started a Hall of Shame for these types of inquiries about blatantly fake watches. Most of them were bad Pateks that weren't even trying to copy any particular model, just like this one, and of course they were usually "given to" the OP by an "uncle".

    The photos you uploaded are good enough. No need for more! Not only is it not a PP, it's a crummy watch. Hope you didn't buy it!

    That caseback resembles a champagne bottle cap, not a PP caseback. Movement is awful.

    Terribly fake.

    I'd wish for a function that'd allow me to blurt "No!" or "Fake!" into a thread, without actually having to open the thread.
