Reply With QuoteI'm pretty sure all these Fortis Marinemaster's are fake.
Look at the dial logo and printing. I'm not an expert but it looks wrong to me.
Didn't know such things existed - Fortis watch kit

The complete watch costs £1k+, so if someone knows what they're doing, they could build the kit watch for much cheaper.

Yeah these are well known and I think the most faked Super Compressor out there.
Look at the other items for sale, he has lots of “kits” and other vintage Seiko, Orient batched up lots, even has some Audemars and Piaget movements for £7.5k.
Looks dodgy to me especially so much old stuff that is like new and sold as parts..

I bought a Marinemaster quite a few years ago but remember that when I was looking around, there was some controversy about the original model and a later model which Fortis had made from parts they had from old stock. Another second hand watch minefield, seemingly.
Sent through the ether by diddling with radio waves
Is he buying fakes, stripping them, and selling them as "kits" in an attempt to hide their fakieness?
These fakers still can't get it right - caseback - WATER PROOF - whatever happened to WATERPROOF
Awful, on every level
