Ebay Panerai looks suspicious

[arniezac]

Everything about this auction looks bad.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Panerai-Luminor-Watch-Black-Leather-Deployment-Strap-/190509538443?pt=UK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item2c5b40dc8b

I don't know enough about Panerai Reps to definatley call this one, but.....

The date font looks cheap, so does the deployment, in fact it just doesn't scream quality to me.

No box or papers,

doesn't know if its waterproof!!

Blue crystal makes it look expensive, come on!!

The low bids surely hint that the bidders know its not Gen.

Reported it anyway as it looks like someone is going to pay over the odds for what is probably a cheap rep

I'm not an expert but I agree... isn't the seconds dial far too close to the center of the dial?

[darko]

this is rep 100%

[txcollector]

this is Canal St. bad. Nothing on that watch looks remotely real, including the buckle.

[Lobster]

i actually laughed when i saw that rep.

[plaifender]

Haha.. I'm glad he's really not trying to pass it off as GEN in his description. He even warns to bid accordingly because of lack of authenticity. He got rich, but at least some poor schmuch doesn't think they got a Killer steal on a great GEN.. The winner probably just thinks he got a great deal on a great REP! The sad part is that it's a bad rep

[txcollector]

more than $500 for that POS? I'm not sure the buyer wasn't fooled

[cougaree]

What a pos!

[BGGodwin]

Someone is going to be very unhappy with their $519 purchase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ouch... I hope the new owner doesn't cut himself with that crown...

I find myself in an odd state -- speechlessness.
