Hi all, I’m new to this forum and just brought my first Tag, was doing lots of research as to not buy a fake, came across two different watch sellers. Each watch seller selling a formular 1 CAZ1011 and a Calibre 5. The two Formular 1 watches both have the same serial number and the two Calibre 5 both have the same serial number. Guessing both or at least one are fake.
Crazy that both sellers have same watches as eachother with the same serial numbers.
Thinking these could be popular serial numbers to clone? And if there could be more watches out there with these serial numbers. Such a shame such nice watches get spoiled by fakes.

formular 1 serial WPN5698
Calibre 5 serial WPL6732

Likely both in that case. Unless it's the same watch.

If you post pics or a link to the ad, we might be able to tell a bit more.

I can't see any watches for Baill-jaso. But I do see Rise-on has a lot of used watches for sale including some TAGs. It's a Japanese seller with good feedback. I couldn't find the watches you were looking at without a link. Is it possible, though, that they sold the same watch twice, but the first buyer didn't go through with the sale (hence they had to readvertise)?

They sold last week so won’t find them now, you can see details from photos I uploaded, also UK seller was selling both new ones, and Japanese seller was selling both used, so definitely not sale watch sold twice, also both pairs where up for sale at the same time at one point during the auction times.

Interesting thread on double serials. I've found 2x 'new' Formula 1 Chrono CAZ1011 BA0843's for sale on Ebay this week with serial WHR4066 and same warranty numbers. Super replicas I'm convinced. Shame the TAG website doesn't highlight this watch has already been registered.

I edited the thread's title to be more descriptive and serve as a cautionary tale for others
