Interesting Day-Date

I know 99% of our members will not fall for this eBay Day-Date but it sparked a question in my mind.

First, the listing: https://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eB...=0&cspheader=1

Report it to eBay if you feel like it.

Yes, it’s very ugly…





Here’s my question - when a seller makes all the disclosures about the aftermarket bits is it still a fake in your eyes?

In this case the only genuine part is the movement and perhaps stem/crown.

It’s a fake watch cobbled together with a real movement, whether or not the seller discloses this doesn’t change the facts.
