Is my TAG Heuer Authentic? All questions here please

A adrowil

I’ve recently purchased a Tag Heuer Aquaracer from a small online shop, after reading all the comments on here about how prevalent the fakes are I thought I’d just check as warranty cards aren’t fool proof. The watch came with full box, papers & even a eBay authentication card which is strange as it wasn’t purchased from eBay? I’ve checked the pin & collar in the bracelet & they seem to be correct as the original Tag ones. I’d really appreciate some feedback as it’s playing on my mind now.

Hi! Recently bought this Aquaracer WAY208B.FC6382 online and wanted to check its authenticity please. I know there are a number of fake Aquaracers out there but also wondering whether this model is among those that are usually replicated.

Real or fake? Many thanks.

Date window is not placed correctly so i would call it a fake.
Serial number is also not correct for a production model.

Crown and bezel looks off to me.

Both are fairly obvious fakes.

Not sure about yours, but WAY208A WAY208B and WAY208C are all unfortunately common fakes, especially WAY208C.

Judging from the hang tag (sticker tag) it is def a watch i would not buy. Spacing is different from the originals and both my originals look different from that hangtag.
Lume pip on bezel also look off. Plastic wrapping on watch head also looks like the replicas.

Diy the seller advertise it as new ? That model is to my knowledge discontinued a while back. Highly doubtful any new are around.

Was able to take more pictures including the back and warranty card which was supposedly from Tourneau. I read Tourneau is reputable but is it possible to fake the card/sticker? Also included a picture of the open back provided by the seller (I don’t know how to open it myself) which I hope helps.

The serial number is a very poor way of trying to establish authenticity. Even if it appears on the website it does not mean that the watch in question is necessarily the actual watch with that serial number. And if it doesn't appear it might mean the watch is too old or it was sold in a different country... I mean, the point of the website is to check your warranty, so if the watch is out of warranty there's no real reason for it to be there.

The only way you can 100% guarantee it is authentic is to send it to TAG Heuer for inspection.
