Fake Tiffany 1680 on EBay?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Role...item4d367c2ca4

What do you think case is fake right? Anything genuine on this watch?

Looks ok, hands and dial dont match and crystal is not original
The only way to tell a real tiffany from fake is with original papers, its so hard to tell otherwise

Case is aftermarket (fake). Movement looks good, but case is definately a fake. CGs wrong, long Es, laser etched lug engraving. Definately fake.

That is an eBay Top Rated Plus seller.
Good luck getting this listing removed.

To be kind to a "top rated seller" I sent this:

>>I don't know if you are aware, but the case on this watch is not a genuine Rolex item. The case if from a fake Rolex. The crown guards are an easy tell of this fact as is the laser etched "engraving: between the lugs. Rolex stamps or engraves theirs, and these are laser etched. Also, the "E"s have a long center leg which is not used by Rolex. The caseback could be genuine, but the case is definately not.<<

We'll see what he does now.

Just got this reply from him:
"..,and Rolex service center is a bunch of idiots? They serviced this watch at least once before and they gave me the estimate now but I wouldn't let them change the Tiffany dial so I refused service"

So, either it didn't go to RSC, they (RSC) are nuts, or he is a liar. Only three options I can see.
