Concerning that these newer fakes are cropping up more and more frequently, even at some ‘dealers’

I used to have a Watchco couple of years ago. It was bit different than this one.

“WatchCo’s” or what most people call WatchCo’s are genuine Omega service cases. The watch shown here is simply fake everything, apart from the movement.
They’re two very difference beasts.

Yes,that's why I said it was different because of the original service parts.

This one isn’t even a good fake- rather cartoonish. But if I didn’t have my watchco as a reference and looked at a bunch of the originals, I wouldn’t know any better. Particularly if it were coming from a “dealer”. Besides those that specialize in vintage, I wonder if many modern “dealers” do anything beyond look at the movement and case back and say yup- it all says Omega, so it must be real.
