Andygreat 0 Posted October 11, 2015 I know it's old and beat up but there are many details screaming fake.

Andygreat 0 Posted October 11, 2015 Is that crown guard supposed to have a gap like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoyDivisionu 0 Posted October 16, 2015 Hard to say, that in itself doesn't scream fake at me. But you seem worried. maybe don't buy an expensive watch like this from some random on ebay. There is dealers that deal in gen-second hand watches in the trusted dealers list on the forum. Maybe try there or save up some more and buy a new one. If you can afford that one you are 66% there already anway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted October 16, 2015 Numerals look very different from the gen. http://www.paneraisource.com/watch_details/Historic_7.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

black263 228 Posted October 16, 2015 In the gen, the angle of the 2 between the curve and the bottom line is very sharp. Compare that with the angle in this watch. I'm no expert, but that doesn't look right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveA 309 Posted October 16, 2015 Looks fake to me,crown guard,numerals,dial doesn't look quite right and I think rather than old it has been carefully aged to look used Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Yan 8 Posted October 16, 2015 Not sure about the 12, could be just the angle of photo. all the usuals seem OK. the movement is usually the easiest way to tell but it looks good on this. The CDG on the movement is very fine just like the gen and the wheels have the correct amount of bevel on them. the incabloc looks good too. The only thing I can see is that the case back seems to be brushed and it should be polished on the 111 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
