Hi bros, looking to purchase seiko watches online but worried that might bought a fakey. Any pointers to look out for to share with a newbie like me? Probably general pointers will do, thanks in advance. :)

Has anyone encountered a SBDX001 feiko?

Buy only from reputable sellers or deal at your own risk. This has always been my guiding principle.

Fakers are very motivated.

USD70 watch is also worth faking.

From the SEIKO fonts alone can already see this is a fake.

Thanks for sharing Bro! :mrgreen:

guys, all these while I knew there are Velatura copies, especially this Yatching Timer SPC007 model.

do take note of this model.

the telltale signs are:

- the letter 'O' in SEIKO is rounder. Original Seiko 'O' is more like an oval 'O'

- Original Velatura hour/min hands are broad & masculine, the copies are thinner & the lume portion is pathetic.

- the spacing in-between each letters in 'VELATURA'

- Date wheel colour difference.


Fake (compare the letter 'O' in SEIKO against the original. Compare the hour/min hands against the original)

Original

Here's the fake's link. Maybe the buyer got duped himself unknowingly.
