    A lot of money for a copy

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... Track=true

    Do these people never learn or will some person actualy pay that for a copy?

    I e mailed the seller to point out the error of their way. Awaiting a reply

    Cheers

    I agree it seems a lot of money for a CWC G-10. What makes it possible to ID it as a copy?

    Very quickly,

    Case back numbers
    Hands
    Crown

    There's no need to look any further.

    Bad form for a guy with nearly 1000 + feedback, fair enough if he didnt know ie its reasonable to assume that no-one would bother to fake a watch that usually only sells for £45.00.....but this huge fib:

    "This is standard issue British Army quartz service watch. It was puchased, privately, by a now retired Officer of the Light Dragoons"
    :twisted:

    Did I understand this correctly? There are fake CWC G10s?

    Almost all of the CWC G10 I have seen that were fakes had one thing in common, the serial number: 479/81
