Why?
What apart from his low post count does the photos clearly identify a "scam" (or fake)

He had a NOS random Kermit posted which has since been removed. He represented photos he received from another dealer as his own and attempted to sell it to me. Please PM me for more details

Thanks for the heads up! His watch looks legit and I couldn't figure out why it could be a scam. Using pictures from another dealer makes sense now. Looking at his 100% feedback of 16, I noticed they're all for buying and none for selling.

But this guy thinks he’s smart. He actually has access to an LV either real or a replica that he sent me pics with times I requested for authenticity. What he didn’t realize was the NOS random he was selling has the rehaunt serial clearly visible and the watch he used to stage the time shot I requested did not.
I also tracked the NOS rehaunt watch to an reputable dealer who was offering it for sale . The dealer confirmed the scammer requested additional pics and confirmed those were the ones used to make the ebay post . |

I haven’t been able to track down the Batman’s original poster so I have no hard evidence on that one but this guy has a pretty good scam going on here as evidenced but the NOS Kermit. It’s his MO and I’m confident the Batman is in the same boat

Where are you seeing this? I can see the entire serial number on one of the pictures of the eBay listing but can only clearly see at best three digits on the Chrono24 listing.
I'm not doubting you but without proof I'm not sure what we can do

Hi Jay , I contacted the rightful seller of the watch and he confirmed sending the pics to the scammer while he posed as a potential buyer. The scammer then provided pics to me in a hand position of my request using another LV.
