Fake Omega 007. My mother went to Turkey, brought this watch back for a friend, the minute hand detached so I fixed it back in place. Long story short, I now own this lol.
As seen from the photos and the AliExpress listing, its far from an Omega.
Its also massive!
As a casual passerby, is there anything that immediately jumps out and makes one realize itβs fake?
As said already, I also don't recognised the dial. There's also the finish, the case is rough in parts. The crown on the left does nothing (disconnected from the movement).
When buying a high end watch, always ask to see the movement. If they say "removing the case back will damage the watch (water resistance)" they are lying.
