With six members now having declared this watch a fake, this conclusion seems widely accepted. Since this watch is so clearly a fake, perhaps one or more of the experts can share with the rest of us what it is that convinces them that this is a fake?

I totally agree! Can't stand fakes and prefer not to say how to make better ones.

The first picture could have fooled anyone. The back totally gives it away!

It's fake because it doesn't match its authentic counterpart. Just look at the two and compare for yourself, it's not a big secret what the issues are with this watch.

do you guys honestly think the makers of replica watches post up these crappy watches on this forum to see if they pass or not?

the chinese makers of these watches, if they are serious, buy a genuine watch, disassemble it and try the best they can to replicate the parts. they don't need you experts to confirm how good or bad it looks.

100% percent of these posts in this section from people who just sign up and post this shite are not from people trying to build the perfect fake.

of course, just my humble opinion, you're free to disagree.
