    There is a seller who has listed a Speedmaster 3570.50 ... 4 times .... and apparently using the same watch. It is the same pictures at least. He lists his location as Portland, Oregon, but the description says it ships from Japan, by EMS China Post. The bidding history looks very similar. And one of the listings has an ask now price.
    The seller has only 4 activities on eBay and bad feedback.

    This is so blatant, that it makes one wonder if its an inexperienced seller who made multiple listings (by mistake??? ) Hmmmmmm . I have sent them a message, (asking if it was available for seeing FTF in Portland and enquiring about shipping from Japan) but rather doubt that I will get a reply. I will update.

    I don't have the experience to bring this to the attention of the eBay admin, so maybe someone can do that.

    I agree but wanted to call him out by sending a message. @dsio Do you mean fake add or fake Speedie? Or both?

    Apparently also sold this, Omega Speedmaster Apollo 13 25th anniversary 3595.52 for just a tick over $1000.00. Really?? Also all bidders are protected, shill bidding so blatant it is ridiculous.

    Yea I felt bad for people bidding on this garbage so I messaged him to see what I'd get and I wasn't disappointed.

    Me:
    So you have this watch labeled as 3570.50 which is incorrect. The 3570.50 model has no day/date function, is not a chronometer, is 42mm not 40mm, and has a hesalite crystal not sapphire as stated in your listing. Also the date window at 6 o'clock is all kinds of wrong. Please edit/remove your listing or I will report you for a fraudulent listing.

    Him:
    No , this is real .

    you don't see this warranty .

    At which point I reported him to ebay and proceeded to intentionally bid and win the phony item to avoid a noobie getting screwed over. Obviously he wasn't going to file a non-payment and has not since posted another listing. /shrug
