Can the WAY201 have all green lume on the hands ? They can seem blue With green tips depending on how much charge I give but really the hands are all green lume

Also the movement is SW200-1

and magnifying glass seems to distort at the very edges of glass so date thickens a little when tilting the watch.

is it a fake ? ‍♂️

Thanks. I’m hoping there is a variant with the same green across the whole of both hands

Not the best photos in the world but I vote fake. Just look at the lume dot on the bezel and compare it to a genuine one. For some reason the awful discusting fakers cant get that detail right

Another easy thing to do is google this model + the word lume and you will see photos of a genuine watch in low light.

Where did you purchase this? Its important that others dont get fooled by these filthy criminals

They have different TAG Heuer logo. It’s the first thing I noticed. Can that model have different TH logos?

Where is it for sale, or if you've already bought it, where from?

My watch has the old logo.

I don't think so, I think a watch with a new logo has a new number. They did it with the basic F1s, and they also made them 1mm bigger. Most watches don't get new logos because they make them all at once, which is why it happened on the basic F1s because they ran out. Most models don't run out, they just get discontinued. Anything with an old logo is made before 2015.

It was so exquisite a copy that it was hard to spot from the outside. My training is still lacking.
The movement inside, including the engraving of the rotor, feels a little different from the real thing.
