Very odd shape of the date window...

Not sure about the case. Fuzzy back image. A in wAterproof looks to pointy. Not flat enough, but hard to tell without better images

No proper reference number in caseback.

I haven't bought an original one in 17 years and last one I bought was a reissued case from my parts supplier in 2009

Fake. (with the exception of the $200 movement).

Glad I can only afford the 165.0324! The stress of buying an original SM300 would be too much to take!

Just for ref, what else rings the alarm bells on this one. Apart from the date window, the dial looks okay. (perhaps the white minute markers don't line up with the ends of the 6, 9 & 12 lume plots). Bezel numbers a bit big??
