yeah fakes is something that worries me indeed.
Hence looking a chrono24.com for verified sources, and the guarantees provided there.

Might end up spending a bit more for a new one, just to be sure
I probably won't ever buy another one , defo not going to start collecting these.. So might as well get one the right way

for instance cheapest one in the list

Both from spain

1st one no papers used
2nd one, unwork.. but papers

I just don't like the way that one looks.. the edge of the glass looks wrong to me.

Seems to have very pronounced gap between glass & frame, or is that edge of the frame, hard to tell.. but it looks odd on this specimin, haven't seen any others with that
makes me think either fake or had work done to it..






1st one is cheaper, but has signs of usage.. but it just looks better to me.. despite that it has some signs of wear
maybe I'm just imagining things, but it just makes me look away from the cheapest ones out there.. there has to be a reason they are that much cheaper ...
