    Fake, the Tag Heuer logo looks wonky for a start.

    Do you really need to ask?

    It's a very poor fake.

    Hence the .

    It's comically bad.

    Shall I ask the seller if it's an automatic?

    It says quartz on the dial.

    Sorry. I don't get to see the icons on tapatalk!

    Over on WUS that would be a genuine question so I wrongly assumed it was here too.

    It does but being a fake, who knows what's underneath the dial. :D

    Looks just like one I bought in Turkey in the mid 90s for a tenner the tag badge on the dial promptly fell off 2 weeks later

    Some of the fakes in Turkey in the 90's were truly shocking. I did manage to pick up a decent auto Submariner for about a tenner though. Was still running many years later when I lost it on a night out. For all I know, its still going now.

    Shocking!

    I do have a Lolex Daytona though to my shame. Fun thing about fakes is that if you own enough of the real stuff nobody guesses ( Father-in-law ticked me off for spending more money on high end watches when he first saw me wearing it - and he has nice timepieces himself).

    Still, can't see anyone being taken in by that crock!
