Too good to be true - 116610LV for $5850

Either pics are stolen - or this is a good fake that obviously has the hour hand over where "date" should be.

Nonetheless, $5850 and a seller feedback of 3 registered in October sounds scammy.

I'm over trying to decipher real vs fake from images etc, such a rabbit hole, but based on price alone this seems like a thieving proposition.

I'll leave it to the experts to determine and report.

I think it's definitely too good to be true.

Laser engraving on the inner clasp looks really sloppy. Could be the picture quality but this watch for under 6k is the first warning sign.

Watch is real, original jeweler is real.
Could not find in a reverse search?
Not reported albeit HIGHLY suspicious
