    Yup. Just ask Grey to do the same picture again, just showing the back of the watch. You can always tell a fake Omega straight away by the reflections and colour hue in the crystal. The strap is exactly the same as another fake of the same model I saw just an hour before reading this post. They've even copied the movement, but it's not the same quality as an original compared side by side.

    No engravings on the straps keepers. The lume doesn't appear pattinated and the markers don't appear to be recessed. Strap is wrong material and the buckle is incorrect. Or so it seems in this photo. I'm quite suprised the limited edition is being copied tbh.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    Oddly enough, the strap I saw DID have the correct engraved keepers, but the large texture and roughness of the weave and large stitching was exact to the one in this post. Same off light colour too.

    And here I am contemplating getting a real limited edition watch, when I can just buy a fake for internet points ;)

    If one wanted a replica where would one go to get it?

    I believe the watch to be fake, it was a birthday gift from a good friend of mine, I have no idea where he got it...but I know there's no way he could afford a real one. (neither can i)

    The pistol is real, an Interarms Walther from 73. To answer hthomas, I love it! It is probably my favorite gun that I have. I've got another PPK/s in .22lr also (nickel finish) that is even more fun to shoot, just because it's cheap to feed.

    Interesting, that is some movement to copy as well. I have the non le sm 300, the watch in greys photo does seem to just have a metal bezel also, your spot on about the crystal though out of my 5 omegas only 3 share crystal hue, one is slightly bluer in certain lights at certain angles, the other is vintage and has plexiglass so is of course totally different.

    Omega makes the replica.

    If you want a fake.... China.

    Nice picture. Would've been better IMO without the model DB5 though. {[]

    ASP considering as you observed in the other SM300 LE thread, that the secondary market price for these is already high and climbing, this is surely an expectable outcome?

    Equally I'm guessing that Omega will repeat this 'LE for Screen Prop' format for future JB watches, given the success of the concept?

    Doesn't Interarms have their serial numbers behind the trigger on the frame in front of the grips, and Interarms on the front of the slide on the right side?

    Yes. It does. With the finish on the gun it's a bit difficult to see in the top photo, here are a couple more.
