By far the worst fake vintage SM300 I've ever seen!

Post by SpaceCowboy » Fri Oct 19, 2012 5:16 am

This is soooooo bad, it's entertaining! :jerk:

I've been trawling the internet for SM300s for years now, and this one beats them all... This one I'll keep for my records. Just have to download the pictures before I report it as a fake.

So guys how about some practice? What's wrong with this piece? Let's see if we can spot them all...

A little off-topic: My three year old daughter was utterly fascinated by your signature 2canChew. :) She is a meat lover, so I told her that this is where it comes from. First lesson in the cruel world of hunting, I guess!

That first one is listed as "sold" - somebody got screwed. Is there anything even remotely salvageable as "real" on either of those? :think: I mean, not for the price they went at. :mrgreen:

Well, the cal 565 movement is probably not a fake. And the case, but I'm not sure. The caseback has definitely been "upgraded" with military serial no. etc. so that one is useless as well. Conclusion: If you need a 565 for spare parts, this could suffice... And a case without the caseback. Price? I dunno. Maybe $50-100, tops.

I think someone reported the military one at least. Since it got pulled by the seller.
