Sub-Dial spacing is too far away. People are so stupid nowadays bidding blindly, I guess the lesson will be an expensive one if item is not removed by eBay. Reported.

You stumble on these sort of things when searching eBay for watches, it's not useless like you put it, most of the time reported auctions do get pulled off and the user gets banned by eBay.

I have a job :lol:

I can't understand how people can risk bidding so much on ebay? Surely if you are going to spend that much money you go to an AD? Or is this a massive discount?

Not to mention that the sub-dial centers line up with the 3 and the 9 instead of being above that line...

It is pretty stupid IMO. This one is obvious. But most of the time people are just guessing. It's not worth the risk. And there is no massive discount to that degree.

I am with Fakes with that. That Boytona was a blatant fake, but I wouldn't bet a used match over a few bad pics on Ebay, anyway.
Bidding for several grands on Ebay is too risky.
