This one is quite shockingly bad !! And he's started the bidding at £1450 !! :bangin:
http://cgi.ebay.co.u...em=230743546385

The tell tale signs (and there are lots !):
  • Crappy pearl
  • Poor CG
  • Terrible caseback
  • Wrong coloured bezel (too blue !)
  • Wrongly positioned He valve
  • Terrible font (especially the "007") on the dial
  • No hour marker next to the date window
  • Poor date font size
  • Bent spring bars !!!!!
  • Wrong bracelet E/Ls
  • No serial No on lugs
  • Poor scalloping of bezel
  • The lume dot on the second hand is WAY too big !!
I could go on but I've actually lost interest - it is just TOO horrific !! :fool:

Think I need to report to this to Ebay.... :g:

How does he have so much good feedback? He must not know that it's a rep..

Looks absolutely fantastic to me..............oh just put my glasses back on.........bloody shocking :inverted: how do these people think they can get away with crap like that, really gets up my goat :nono:

Yes I like reps, I also like Gens but would I ever sell a rep as a Gen? Of course not :bangin: He looks like he's got a shill bid in already (it's still for sale by the way) I have just emailed him to politely tell him it's a rep and could he please remove the listing......let's see shall we ! $ 10.00 he keeps it on there ;)

'He states that it is not currently working, and has not had the time to go the jeweller to get it fixed. He states that it is probably an easy fix though to get it working.'

Ya right!
