Why is the warranty code on the website different to the one on the card? Surely Mike must have put in 99FZ etc...

The serial code matches the 99FZ warranty card

The serial number BRB0438 matches 99FZ so it looks like it was my mistake with entering the details

Bought it on Ebay, I was looking at pre-owned but saw this. The seller has 100% feedback from 774 reviews with 984 items sold and been a member since 2009

Hmm, I bet he sells a lot of watches too... might help if you post a photo of the watch itself. Unfortunately this watch is one of the most faked TAG Heuer watches so that in itself is worth noting.

Plus the warranty proves nothing, the fakers can use one genuine watch to make hundreds of fakes all using the 'genuine' details. Pretty sure if they can fake a watch they can fake a warranty card too.

Don't forget to report the criminal who sold you this illegal counterfit item to the police authorities.

how can you tell?
Simply go to the TAG Heuer website and look at this model, compare and you will see that the dial deviates a lot from an actual TAG Heuer CAZ1014.

you think its real? The seller says its real, he would do but has offered a return, full refund and gave me his address. Think I might take into TH shop in the city centre for their thoughts
Sales people in a store are not qualified to confirm authenticity and will not be able to advice on well made fakes.

Man if this is a fake it fools me...
You need glasses bro 😁 the dial details dont even look like the caz1014, the criminals who manufactured this didn't even bother verifying how the dial looks on a genuine one

Just compare your watch with this CAZ1014 from the TAG Heuer site (markers on the right subdial, and date window position) and you can be 100% sure it’s fake. Sorry

Sorry, but this F1 chronograph is fake, no doubt! This is another example of why checking serial numbers on a warranty site is pointless. @Jim Dollares called it!!!

There are other issues, but we’ve discussed that at length in many other discussions. Return the watch as @Jim Dollares recommended!
