Is this a fake on EBAY?
I think this might be a fake but not 100% sure...

I wouldn't be so quick to call it a fake. I vaguely recall seeing similar displays in Jewelry stores many years ago, but I am not positive that they were Rolex. There have been many ad displays over the years, so...

Well, excuse me for being quick.
I recall e-bay was flooded with these helmets a while back all being originally sold from Canada. |

It looks pretty cool, but the dial isn't exactly great.

The safest bet on ebay for buying designer stuff is to buy only USED. A better chance of not getting a fake. Polo clothing, Rolex watches, etc. Not perfect but better than the new stuff. With good resale value on ebay.

If the helmet doesn't look like this - it is fake. None of the helmets came with clocks.
