Another 116610LN post: Real or Fake?
Seller apparently willing to meet at local AD prior to purchase. Forgive the poor pics, but what says the group?

Can't tell from pics, but if willing to meet at AD, thumbs up.

Need to wipe the sour cream and butter off that potato.
Still don't get how people selling $$$$ watches can't take quality photos. |

I don’t forgive poor pics when it comes to luxury goods that are often faked.

If I had better pictures, I would have posted them. Seller is willing to meet at AD, so that's what I'll do. Just wanted to see if there were any glaring red flags before wasting my time.

AD doesn’t mean RSC... some AD wont open the watch to do a movement check. Be careful....

Salespeople at AD may also be fooled by a good fake. Beware. Out-of-focus poorly lit pics in 2019 are unforgivable in this game.

Wow
Who took the photos? If the seller, then walk FYI, the ONLY photo I can make out anything is the green box, and actually that looks fake! Be mighty careful

IF the AD has a competent watchmaker, that is a BIG IF, then they usually charge for this service.
Sales people usually don't have a clue. Sounds like your wasting your time, if you can't authenticate it yourself, you're setting yourself up to get scammed just to save some $$$, it could be a decent fake, and or it's stolen. |

How good is the deal? Always buy the seller. I can usually spot a fake in pictures but these are some of the worst quality pics of seen.

If the seller is only giving you those photos I can't imagine it being legit.

Utterly horrible grainy images, and can't tell anything from them. No excuse, any smart phone can do much better than that. Red flag alert.
