Do I understand correctly - on Ebay auctions, all these Tags that are sold for ~1000£ and have valid (active) warranty , are all fakes?
I've got an older Seamaster and last years Superocean Heritage 42 as well as an AR.
The fakes I've seen of my old SMP have been awful with a crap lume pip and an even crapper HE valve.
The fakes of newer SMP have been better.
I've not seen a fake SOH 42 yet but I've no doubt they exist.
Hey guys
I posted a few weeks ago about a CAY1110 I got from a 3rd party seller. I've sent it to Tag for a battery replacement and when I asked about authenticity they replied with "We wouldn't have serviced it if it wasn't genuine"
I've added a couple of extra photos, just want my mind putting to rest as I can still return it for the next few days.
What are your thoughts?
Well those pins and tubes are definitely fake. But there is always a chance they just changed the bracelet. I'm guessing you can't look inside? I have 2 fake and one real version of that exact watch. I'll look closer later. Please provide some dial pics. Also, I'm curious if a fake with a real serial number, could ever get warranty work done... I bet I could trick the service center.
If you have a service receipt from TAG Heuer doesn't that basically authenticate the watch, even if it is actually fake?
Haha I bet you could. Yes the serial number stands up but I am aware that means very little. I keep checking AD pictures and videos for any differences but I cannot seem to find them,hence why I'm posting here. Thanks for taking the time to reply
Looking at the markers in the lower subdial, I think it’s fake
At 06 and 04 ?
A better pic of the subdial. Markers look better in this pic.
The lume markers look well off in that pic or is it just refraction playing tricks ?
I don't think the markers are different to the one you're showing, OP' pic is not a head on shot of the dial.
Do you really see no difference between these two markers? The angle of the photo is very similar, and cannot affect the length of the marker as much
