Genuine Or Fake!


Recommended Posts

If it is in an auction house and listed as a JLC then it should be real and if not then you should get your money back if you bought it , if however it is listed as a "Gents stainless steel watch " or similar then it will be a fake and the auction house know it is and haven't listed it as real.

Also there will be a clue in the estimate

The other thing to bear in mind if it is listed as a JLC in the auction - and the estimate seems low - is that low estimates are often a "come hither" gesture by the auction house. I saw a 1940s Seamaster with an estimate of £200-£300 go for £3,200 recently...

Hi geo, did they only do this model in gold?

The gold watch is a Master Perpetual Triple Date and costs over £10,000. I don't know the answer to your second question.

As I said before study the finest detail and you will see quite a few differences compared to the one you are asking about.

    • Hello and welcome from Leeds, England. 
    • Hi,   My name is Simeon I am based in Sydney, Australia and have recently got into watch repair / watch making.  I am very much a learner having serviced multiple forgotten watches, some of which were actually successful!   I have a slowly growing collection of watches, mainly old Soviet, a few Japanese and (not pictured) some Raketas, a Poljot Alarm, an Omega Speedmaster Reduced and a vintage (1972) Tissot Seastar.  I like unloved vintage watches, with quirky faces and enjoy bringing them back to life through the simple(!) act of disassembly, clearing and reassembly. I am an Electrical Engineer who also undertook a trade apprenticeship so I am reasonably handy - It's fair to say, I know just enough to get myself in trouble. 
    • ha ha looks like a WMD.....you know I want one now  
    • Sorry to reopen a necro-thread (long dormant) - I have a Seiko Kinetic 5M42A that needs at least one coil, possibly both. Anyone know of any sources?  The usual fallback of eBay has failed me - there are people selling coils, but not the ones for this movement (which was apparently a very popular movement, used in Seiko and Pulsa branded watches.) The coil numbers are: 4002 516,  and 4002 519 I'd also love to find a source for spares of the screws used all over this movement - they're Seiko PN 0022 247 Thanks! (Moderator - if this should be a new thread, please do feel free to tell me, or drag this one into a new thread.) Don Eilenberger
