Hudnall10 1 Posted July 30, 2022 Hi all, Please can you look at this and let me know you views Background: I purchased this from an auction house ( online) but it isnt the bay It was advertised as a genuine Tag Heuer . Afer fees , delivery etc it came to nearly £800 On arrival even I ( a total noob) could see it was awful Even I know that there shouldnt be x2 number 15 on the dial ........ There seems lots wrong with the face , the serial numbers are vaguelly for a carrera 16 not a 36 and it has a battery !! Also the box was dodgy. I sent it back and after a week of pontificating ,there is some talk that it might have been a prototype .... All advice gratefully recieved Hudnall10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intresting 21,656 Posted July 30, 2022 The fact it says Caliber 36 it should have an automatic movement. No battery-operated Tags will have that on the dial. You should get your money back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadApple 13,081 Posted July 30, 2022 Take it into a Tag Shop and ask them...... when they stop laughing ask them to issue you proof it is fake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
