i think it is dodgy he is using your pics and trying to pass them off as his watch.. i would ask him to rmove the pics from his sale post.. if he refuses then pm the mods.

I would go right to the mods to start off with. What the guy did is wrong full stop. His post should be deleted!

I agree with Mamas and Bruce, Roger. You should PM the mods there and inform them them that your pic is being used. You have no liability but you do want to protect potential buyers from a possible scammer.
