Here is a picture of the one listed by Antiquorum that is estimated at fetching $120,000 - $150,000:

Notice it also has the officially certified chronometer rating on the dial and looks like the pictures I posted earlier; not like the one on E-Bay.
I feel confident in the reporting of this sale to E-Bay.
Here is another example in E-Bay that is a fake and being sold similarly as the other auction. I will report this one as well:
