Ok, I think this has to be too good to be true.

Am I right?

I mean it looks like an Omega, the Packaging looks correct, but its not called one in any of the infomation and the seller does not accept paypal

avoid?

    Its not a bad replica, but its definitely not a real Seamaster.
    There are a few obvious differences and of course the price!

    I thought So.

    I've just noticed the Omega in the box and the one his selling are two different types. the one in the box is a real 40th anneversary of James Bond Omega, the one with 007 on the second hand.

    You are absolutely correct, Solaris. It is a fake. The movement if far away from Omega's quality, can see this even in the blurry pics. And Omega's original movement is far larger, besides the small details, which are not correctly on this watch.

    The cons against fakes have been discussed here on the board several times like:

    Don't buy fake watches - it's as lame as buying pirate DVDs. And it can fund terrorism.

    Save up for a real one.

    Just a quick question though this whole fake watches fund terrorism think where was this research done and was it by the watch manufacturers themselves.

    read a good newspaper and good magazines, use the tv not only for soaps, talkshows and MTV and you should be able to find good info on this. Or, ask your local custom's office and you see, that these stories is not being made by the watch industry as criminal organisations are also producing & distributing fakes from fashion, shoes, car spares etc.
