Lady YM

I want to bid on this one for my wife so that we can wear in pair.
Anything suspicious?

"Q: Do you guarentee authenticity of this watch? Jun 04, 2008
A: I couldn't possibly, since I did not purchase it from a store myself."

Avoid. Whole watch looks funny.

It's a fake YM. I reported it.

you guys are expert. i really can't tell it's fake by the picture...if i hold it then i would know but can't say it's fake by provided pictures. how can you tell it's fake? price? the magnifier looks good but on 4th picture you can clearly see that lume is not in the right place from 12 marker. it flied away and stayed on the rbr. other than that looks legit, of course never seen lume doing that on real one. so this will be the identation i guess? but if lume was ok then can you still tell it's fake despite the price?

How about this one I saw online (40mm)? Does it look real?

The picture looks good but I would feel better looking at the whole thing.

The ladies YM doesn't look anything like my men's YM. The logo crown on the clasp looked cheaply stamped; not anywhere near as "crisp" as the one on mine. The metal didn't even look right when looking at a real one; definitely a cheaper grade of metals used.

It's just a fake watch period. I've reported it several times but my extended reporting capabilities don't extend to the Australia site or the Phillipines so it seems to take forever to get these removed. It's a lousy fake as well.
