    Not sure, but that bezel looks wrong on the Seamaster 120. Also, don't know if it is the lighting, but those hands look a little odd. Are they painted white? If so, they look like they have faux patina.

    Cannot speak to the Rancheros, but if the Seamaster is from the same seller, then I would be very skeptical.

    On the Seamaster 120, the bezel is not original. I think the hands are ok though.

    you need to look at the 120 case from the side as there should be ( on the original cases) an indentation below the bezel at 3 and 9 oclock. need a better shot of the crown as well

    i ask the seller, the hands are gold color...

    I'm afraid that the dial is relumed or repainted

    The Ranchero 1 dial doesn't look correct (compared with my own and other web images) and the second, black looks to have been repainted.

    Huge RED FLAGS on the Rancheros. Redials or replacements from aftermarket. Hands are wrong (and ugly). Not even sure about the cases. Stay away unless they can be purchased for the value of the movements. They are anything but authentic.
    I would be very wary of the seller.......
    There are plenty of very nice original Rancheros pictured on this site. Search for them. Here is a pic of mine for your reference.

    Rancheros are all fakes.

    Look closely also to the hands especially the hour hand lume shape. It should not be a simple triangle. It should be an arrow shape.

    This is the biggest tell tale sign.
