Please give us noobs a quick tutorial, R2. What gives this one away?

In a nut shell the sub dials are in a configuration that could only be Quartz or Faux Chronograph. Here is a shot of a Tag Quartz chronograph. http://www.authenticwatches.com/caf1111ba0803.html That is an example of how the sub dials should be laid out for a quartz with that type of configuration.

It is advertised as an automatic.

It doesn't have the right register numbers for the sub dials which I finally conclude is a Chinese Faux Chronograph.

I am really shocked that seller would put out that POS as gen. Appalled really.

Ok now after I look at it this could be a gen if:

1. It's quartz. I suspect it is.
2. if it is an older model.

Now I don't know but it might be a gen. Oops.
