Fake Omega 007 (lemmy.ml)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by Comrade_Squid@lemmy.ml to c/watches@lemmy.ml
 

Fake Omega 007. My mother went to Turkey, brought this watch back for a friend, the minute hand detached so I fixed it back in place. Long story short, I now own this lol.

As seen from the photos and the AliExpress listing, its far from an Omega.

Its also massive!

As said already, I also don't recognised the dial. There's also the finish, the case is rough in parts. The crown on the left does nothing (disconnected from the movement).

When buying a high end watch, always ask to see the movement. If they say "removing the case back will damage the watch (water resistance)" they are lying.
