Looked at again. I don’t see any counterfeit parts. It looks like he repainted the dial. Guy got a bunch of different parts and stuck them together and is trying to sell it. So what. If someone took a 1962 telecaster with aftermarket pickups and electronics, different hardware etc. people wouldn’t be losing their minds and screaming counterfeit.

I don’t know of any other brand where people get so touchy about rebuilds and modifications. I guess I don’t get Rolex enthusiasts, even though I’m a fan of the brand myself.
