First AP - Genuine?
Hi There,
I've been looking at getting my first AP for a while now. I wouldn't normally purchase 2nd hand however a happened to spot one on ebay which looked pretty good value. I'm always a little skeptical so thought I'd post it on here and see if anyone could spot anything which immediately jumped out as pointing to it being fake? I can't recall seeing the "8, 16, 24" on any AP subdials before? If genuine, would anyone also be able to advise which model this is? Thanks, Scott |

if it was real, it would be priced at least at $12,000US or more. What were they asking?

If that was for sale for anything less than 40k I'd be very suspicious. It's hardly a first AP, and who spends 40k on ebay? I suspect the price would have given the game away on this one. |

It looked stainless to me. Thought the color was from the background light of the photo
