Someone got scammed a treat with this one:

Was just browsing for wrist shots of this watch on google (as I have ordered it off Mary) and I came across this:

Looks like someone paid R13,000 for this (around £1260!) without box or paperwork :blink:

 

Check out the Tag logo on the dial - no arrow on the top of the 'G' a dead giveaway, definitely a rep! D'oh!

looks like a good rep though, although i'm no expert. I would definitely not buy a gen without papers though - especially for that price!

I would not have spotted the "G".

Good catch on the photo.

 

I would have asked someone knowledgeable to look at a watch for me...

Most of you veteran collectors spot every detail.

It is really unfortunate that someone got taken.

I only noticed because of Onze's and someone else's reviews that mentioned it. Interestingly the pic they have taken of the crystal back shows silver screws - all the reps I have seen so far have blue screws, so either they have replaced the screws or used a pic of a gen from the back.

 

Can't wait to get my rep of this watch. Hope its up to scratch as well.

I don't mean to bump-up old threads. But I came across someone with an awefuly close name (if not the same) selling a fake Rolex on Ebay not too long ago.

 

We did get his listing pulled, but I think I'll try to pay even more attention in the near future. I'm no expert on this particular watch though.
