100% fake, but if you'd kindly post worse pictures that would be helpful.

A bit of sarcasm there. It's highly recognizable as a fake in these pictures, I was implying if you posted some worse ones (from further away perhaps, or grainy/blurry) the watch would look better.

What makes me know it's fake?

The list would be everything about the watch, but if I picked one obvious tell it would be the crystal- which is not sapphire. If I were to pick a second thing, it would be the bezel pip. If you don't know a ton about seamasters, you can check those things immediately- typically quick tells. Sapphire shouldn't scratch like that and the bezel pip shouldn't fall out, the bezel shouldn't crack and rust- these are immediate tells you're not dealing with a real omega irregardless of the other, specific issues to this "reference."

Other than that? the dial, the rest of the bezel, the He valve, the bracelet- especially the finishing (likely there will be casting marks on the bottom at the end link) the back- it's not going to be a co-axial and it's not going to time properly- and it's likely the limited edition number is going to be 000, 001, or 007 which is pretty much an immediate tell. There's way way more wrong with this watch than right.

Posting multiple threads asking exactly the same question is not going to get you the answer you prefer, it’s just going to piss people off.
I count 3 threads all titled slightly different but essentially asking the same question

sheesh, they got the center hash mark vs. the 12 o'clock marker right? Omega really needs to step up their game, these fakers are getting too good!

They look left of centre to me... very true to the original.

Ah, but the date is off center… not only vertically but horizontally as well for good measure 😁
