Apart from Stevie Wonder's stab at reluming and some play in the bracelet.....I see nothing to indicate the watch is incorrect.

Does this look right? Particularly the date window doesn't look "magnified enough" to me

sure some experts will be along soon (sooner than expected ^)
but that cyclops looks iffy to me, removed & replaced ??
And hey the sellers bought 12 items this year,
"Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it's enemy action."
'Populism, the last refuge of a Tory scoundrel'.
cash only on collection, low feedback, terrible lume job. I'd stay well clear
Cash or Bank Transfer only. Totally trustworthy.
and it's not like there aren't a dozen more from good sellers at the drop of a hat
Why would a 16610 even need a relume? Perhaps goes to show only us weirdos like tritium?
To me it looks more like a 6/10 condition where as he is quoting 8/10. Doesn't look terrible to my eye however and I don't think dodgy
This one looks a cracker though - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mans-watch...IAAOSw1JVZ5v5g
Alarm bells are ringing.
A shitter at best and a snide at worst.
My best guess is that the dial has had water damage. The lume starts to pop and seep out of the indexes. Based on the photo’s, I would rule out a relume.
I recently bought a mint Tudor 79090 off eBay for a great price. As long as you protect yourself (pay via paypal, ebay money back guarantee, get the watch checked out properly etc), there's no reason why you can't buy a decent watch on fleabay. If it's too good to be true, if the seller only wants bank transfer/cash etc then use some common sense and walk away.
So it went for £19.... to me!
I have a colleague who wears fake Rolex, Omega and Panerai watches... he thinks people can't tell the different so I thought this would make a nice Christmas present for him!
He has told me his are "Grade A Replica's".... which is presumably a standard/quality stamp issued by the institute of advanced fakery, perhaps. I wonder what grade that one is?
Brilliant! Although you should then destroy it in front of him!

add to that if the seller won't send a photo with the serial on the watch matching the paperwork next to a newspaper with the current date on it then walk away
also inside caseback and movement shot wouldn't be a miss
but if you feel it doesnt look right then walk way always trust your instinct when you look at so many watches all day
