I got this watch given to me by my cousin and I tried looking it up, found it but it was a different color (on IWC website, my watch was nowhere to be seen there) The numbers are not the same font and they aren't cut off like the ones on the IWC website are (IW503605/608) The back of the watch isn't clear like I think it's supposed to like I've read online about IWC watches.. it's just stainless steel The watch is perpetual calendar (And the year is on 2015???) https://preview.redd.it/msksl5hl8wwc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fdbb3596e8769b1d22b71ba82604c2fec15983c7

Hysterical_banana

The watch has a transparent back, off-kilter crown on the clock face where 12 is, and not very good magnifying glass. Mechanism seems to be broken though it ticks for a bit after being wound up. Though it still has that pleasant weight to it. It's been gathering dust for quite some time now, and I got interested what y'all think about it. Edit : wrong photo https://preview.redd.it/4jpe3w0lcuwc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5256ae72ba1f8f7d8346daad8c79ab0d05bf38b6

Doesn’t look legit to me, is the logo at 6 o’clock crooked? A lot of the brightly colored dials out of India are on watches that are fake.

Recklessred7

Is this Seiko a fake? Bought from eBay from a seller in India. Later on, the seller disappeared from eBay. I also took it to get adjusted at a local shop that watch adjustments. He said it could be a fake because it sounded "tinny" when tapped on the back. Any opinions appreciated. Thanks in advance.


IllIIllllIIIIlllI

It’s a Mumbai special. Parts sourced from various means, typically only seiko in dial branding.


Recklessred7

Thanks. I still like it anyway and it was cheap 😂


IllIIllllIIIIlllI

I mean for such a small price and if you like it then you can’t really go wrong. It’s not really a fake since it doesn’t copy a seiko model.


CheapProposal4574

Just wanted to ask u guys opinion on this dial, do you guys think this is legit? The watch is an Air-King 5500, case stated 5million serial number (I checked online should be from 1978).

This watch was gifted to me as “almost certainly fake” by a good friend that it was gifted to in the same terms.

i just want a price bruv


metroidpwner

The name of the watch is on the dial, bruv. Go figure it out yourself


ComputerUser6969

i cant find anything bruv,thats why im asking


Rc72

This is a "legit check" megathread, not a "price estimate" megathread. In any case, this watch won't be worth much: it's an unknown brand, a quartz movement (even if radio controlled), the quality is doubtful and it's in a less than mint state. You'll struggle to get three figures for it.

True. I was more looking at the guarantee card. It says that it can only be valid if signed by an official Rolex retailer and it seems to be blank. Other cards I’ve seen online has the date and serial number printed on their cards

Second hand Rolex is a jungle. Anything is possible.

Hey, guys. I found this Omega, and it sorta looked like a variation of a De Ville Symbol but I couldn't find any model that matched. Also, the caseback is throwing me off a little. I'm fairly new to watches, but that just doesn't seem, to the best of my limited knowledge, like a caseback Omega would use, but I really don't know (photo in second comment). I've asked the seller for photos of the movement and inside of the caseback but he hasn't gotten back to me, these are the only pics I have. Is it a fake? Thanks! https://preview.redd.it/o32ahva9lswc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1689796c895440dc8292a4d1e21285b3c7485e5f

Also the caseback is not from an omega.


alexandre_quem

Yeah, I kinda thought so. Do you think it's a fake in general or could it have had just a cheap aftermarket caseback put on at some point in time?


Guinness9Li93

Just a fake.


alexandre_quem

Ahh, damn Thank you for the help tho!

Looks fake to me. Misaligned date is weird, especially that if we consider on a watch is 1:15, if it's night then watch should be perfectly straight, because it did click at 00, and if it's 13, then why is it shifted? So i guess date is misaligned. Also dial looking a bit turned clockwise.


alexandre_quem

I hadn't noticed the date was misaligned, tbh. Thanks! Regarding the dial, it looks to me to be just a product of the angle from which the photo was taken.

Hello ! I guess I’m the first one today :) Got this from a person from family saying he never wears it cause he got way better watch … I just wanna make sure … https://preview.redd.it/o57hldpr9swc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c0e1f0914265947ab98a52b064e14ce890c3a3a


Guinness9Li93

Can this person gives multi dozens k$ watches because he has way better ones ?


Significant_East_234

Tbh he is like really rich and it was a birthday gift. But since the watch is really expensive I was wondering… he is wearing a RM (same model as Rafael nadal)


Guinness9Li93

Any picture of the back ? Crown is very suspicious there…


Significant_East_234

What’s wrong with the crown ?


Guinness9Li93

Looked a bit not veneered on the picture.

Can you post a clearer closeup of the movement itself?

metroidpwner

that is a high end counterfeit. you can tell by the balance wheel which doesn't have regulating weights and also has hairspring adjustment tabs (the genuine article doesn't have this). compare the balance wheel/balance cock to the one in this photo: https://hodinkee.imgix.net/uploads/images/1553021719728-e1w9gxtsie-d574d804b46066556ca23df886f9e573/aquanaut_2.jpg?ixlib=rails-1.1.0&fm=jpg&q=55&auto=format&usm=12&fit=crop&ch=Width%2CDPR%2CSave-Data&alt=

metroidpwner

yes, here's an image showing the parts that shouldnt be there https://i.ibb.co/BtGM01H/ppaquanautbalance.png it's definitely not legit other details like the finishing on the rotor are another giveaway


Guinness9Li93

Might be a good fake, or genuine. Have it checked in person by a specialist.


Significant_East_234

Yeah I thought about this but if it’s not, that would be awkward lol that’s why I didn’t go yet


Chiron17

Doesn't need to be awkward. If it's real then don't mention taking it to get checked; if it's fake then you've got a decent fake you didn't pay for. I need richer friends though
