I’m finding quite a lot of these brand new ultra fakes, in second party hands. Lots of dealers grabbing amazing deals, from small sellers, not even thinking for a minute that it’s a deal too good to be true.

The situation is quite troubling.
I was looking for another tag heuer watch but since buying a fake off eBay I've stopped looking.

I can’t think of any valid reason why these counterfeiters keep making such simple mistakes. Tho I’m for it. I’d still buy from eBay. Worse case, your money is tied up a little. But the longer this goes on, the more information we get on how to spot them

One of the ultra fakes from the sellers I'm after, finally, is found out. Look at the 12 bezel lume. It doesn't look like a real one, that is normally flat and more filled in. So, we've found ONE good way to spot the fakes in pics, assuming the sellers don't show the interior of the box with it's awful printing of TAG. might need it's own thread to list out all of the sellers lol

Seller answered my email telling my I'm 'jealous'..... .frickin unbelievable!
Yeah, they usually say stuff like that... It's sad. I usually report them when they say stuff like that. Do it, and I will too, and maybe ebay will actually care...

I spoke to another ebay rep, the one that the ebay exec connected me with awhile back. Ebay exec doesn't DO anything, he just connects you to people that do. Well, I asked him about a program I heard about years ago, where experts in their field/category, have a lot more power, and are actually believed by ebay when they make a report. He said he recommended someone awhile back, in the bags category, but that most reps have never even heard of this... Cross your fingers for me!.

That one has developed a beautiful patina
"stainless steel" patina 😁 yet that doesn't tell the sellers that something is wrong with their watch.

Not sure if genuine so only £350!

When did TAG Heuer invent the Calibre 16 quartz chronograph??? Could be a collector's item. LOL.

At least with these, you can easily tell they're fake. It's the new models that have come out that are troublesome. I'd never buy a watch from e-bay after all the research you guys have done - mind you, I've never bought anything from e-bay anyway as I don't know the seller.

Haha! Didn't see your reply @jamesbizs! Makes you wonder if the seller really knows who they are replying to, or if they really think the watch is genuine.

To answer your question . No. No he didn’t know who he was replying to lol. He really doesn’t care tho.


Then he asked me if I wanted a TAG medal, “you twat”
