another Fake?
I know that this is most likely Fake, but can anyone tell me why? Other than price,no selling history, and bad pictures, I do not know what else to look for. Any suggestions.

His BS story. The crappy pics. No papers or box. Just the look of it. Looks cheaply made. |

The dial is completely wrong. It has the wrong colour also date magnification too low the hands are half the size than the genuine watch and overall the building quality is low. I mean look at the bezel it looks so awful

Yeah the watch in the Ebay link is nothing compared to the real McCoy that Velitsko had posted up.
A genuine YM looks an infinite amount of times better than that piece of junk in the link.

Best line ever: Got as a Christmas gift & I did not believe it was real, so I tossed the corresponding paperwork & gift box; figuring I'd use it once in a while.

With the crappy pics, the story just adds to the hilarity.
I married my wife, hoping...hoping...took her home, and lo and behold---Score one for me, I found out that she is actually a woman!!! |

I think Caesar's Palace should sue the seller for associating their brand name with such a shitty watch.
