Nothing to worry about, it’s just the aperture for the light.

 

That led backlight looks like a fake, see

Normal led should be cleaner/extend more:

 

Hi mougino,

Thank you for the insight. Doing my best to err on the side of caution, I’ve posted another picture of the watch, this time with a more dial forward perspective.

Based on that, do you think it still looks to be counterfeit?

Best,
John

 

I'd say genuine, the first photo is at such an angle that the light aperture can be seen.

 

Agree with @sodamonkey that front picture removes the doubts I had...
Can we see a picture of the back? Did you see any other signs from the post I pointed above that it might not be genuine? (e.g. red stripe on back protective sticker, or the like)

 

Hi All,

Thanks for your continued responses.

To my uneducated eyes, the watch seems genuine. Keep in mind I am not an expert.

Here is a picture of the back of the case, minus the serial number which I whited out.

Does this look legitimate?

Best,
John

 

Yeah, looks good to me👍

 

This is genuine.

 

Thanks all for the insight. I definitely learned some solid info here and it’s a major plus to hear that the watch is authentic!

 

Nothing like hearing your new watch might be a fake. So glad your doubts were quickly put to rest.

 

Thanks for the kind words and caring!
