Good effort on throwing the "Turler" out there as a diversion!

 

Ignoring the horrible dial and the set of hands that must have come from 3 or 4 "Bestfit" boxes, what shows up as being laser engraved?

To me, the fading at the bottom of SWISS MADE looks like a stamp that was tilted. The case number is remarkably clear though, as is the logo

 

acier inoxydable is punched in; the rest is laser engraved. many old cases from various manufacturers had that correct punched acier inoxydable..... could be anything..... kind regards. achim

 

I would not have spotted the difference, so this is good learning, thanks!

 

IMO - even the documents were recently filled in with a ball point pen...

 

Wait a minute guys, waaaaay too much analysis going on. Please simply trust the eBay seller from Uruguay. Don't you see this is a "GREAT TIMEPIECE FOR COLLECTORS!!!" ?

Seller's other item includes ... the Brooklyn bridge (include your landmark that would likely never be up for sale).

 

As advertised: "Great Timepiece for Collectors"...Sanford and Son Collectors ;-)

 

Urugay is becoming the world capital of fake vintage watches at lightning speed.

 

Besides the engraved Omega logo, mixed hands, no serial on the movement, etc. i never seen a certificate issued (only) for the case serial # before ...

 

Well................you have now F!

 

Yes Jim, and i am more amazed by the interest in this fantasy watch.
