The actual user would appear to be in the US, however this item is in Middlesex UK, and the ask a question form is embedded in the actual auction, but asks directly for your e-mail addy... Seems suspisious.

Well, I think his "no longer registered with eBay" status says it all.

Hmmmm.... an "ebay" auction layout I've never seen before, an odd mishmash of seller and location, and zero pictures that are even vaguely useful in verifying the watch as authentic?

Go for it, it's a sure thing... NOT.
