Hi Guys,
This Omega has all the makings of a fake or is it?
Back case seems different, so does the dial markers.
Crown guard and clasp ain't looking normal either.
Or am I seeing things?

That is really terrible
Just look at the alignment of the date in the date window, it's miles out!
Well worth a Tenner. lol
And it has a nice clasp too
OMGThat is clearly horrible.Not sure about that clap fastener but the good news is "The crown is fixed to the thread." as apposed to not fixed ???
The guys a clown

Poor looking example alright and the fact that he has no history as a seller.
Wow! That must be one of thee worst fake I've seen. I sent him a friendly message about his POS : )
and a first post...
That looks like a drunk made it. I hope its so bad nobody would ever think it was worth making a bid
That's terrible, but at least it's bad enough that no-one is showing any interest (yet).
I once was very nearly caught out with a fake 2254.50. It was really accurate, with the HEV valve in the correct place, slim case, crown guards spot on, really good dial (which may have been genuine). It was on an OEM leather strap and altogether looked the business. The flaw that started alarm bells ringing was the bezel 'dot', but initially I thought the insert may have been damaged and replaced with an aftermarket item. It turned out to have an ETA 2836 inside and on closer comparison the case / caseback combination was slightly thicker to accomodate it, but I needed my own 2254.50 in my hand to be able to see it. The overall fit and finish was good and if I didn't already own one I seriously doubt if I would have caught on. To be fair I think the seller hadn't any idea that it wasn't right. It was in a totally different league to this poor specimen.
No one has reported yet?
I just reported it.

Reported yesterday, still available....
I spotted this and reported it, wow those folded links look really special
Reported it the other day too. Still available, just under 3 days left and some poor sap has already bid up to $898...
That bracelet really is terrible. Looks like the monstosities that Seiko inflict on their fives!
I think that would put me off whether I thought it was fake or not.

Hurry guys and you can still get a bargain. It's only at $898 right now.
Surprisingly there are 3 bidders with decent feedback.
Curious to see how much its eventually goes for.
