So does that make every watch with an aftermarket dial - COUNTERFEIT.

I absolutely understand and agree your point - its infringing on another persons intellectual property or trademark.

The difference to me (anyway) is this seller is not trying to dupe anyone, and his description is clear for all to understand.

Its hard enough trying to catch and stop the ones totally out to cheat and deceive.
This guy at least is not doing that
