    is my steelfish legit?

    Just trying to see if this steelfish is legit. I've tried to take some up close shots by my camera is pretty crappy.

    From those pics it seems cool to me, try to get better pics up close of the date frame, the pearl on the bezel, the super ocean lettering and the underside of the flip lock clasp, the screws on the bracelet. Also are the links really loose and smooth or are they kind of stiff?
    Calm down.....It's just a watch....

    Pardon me if I say those are crappy shots. But it looks real.

    You can simply not tell for those photos.
    The Steelfish is one of the best, if not the best faked watch. For an opinion, we need closer, better, photos.

    cheers,

    I have a steel fish myself & that looks pretty legit. But we need better pics just to be sure.

    OP, what makes you feel the watch isn't real? Where did you purchase it from? Any paperwork/receipts/boxes with it? The more info the better.

    hopefully these are better... Ironically, these are from my cell phone and are better quality.

    I refer you to my previous reply. Pictures alone (especially of the number and quality previously supplied) sometimes are not enough.

    I can not see any numbers beneath the A serial number on the last picture... Or am i blind??

    Could you make photo's of the back of the bracelet and the screws to remove the links? Also a better pic of the whole backcase.

    Thanks guys for your help. Had it looked at today by a local watch repair shop. He confirmed it was legit after opening the case and looking at the movement.

    The watch did have markings between the lugs, which I believe was B20685. Screw heads were flat on the links and the bracelet feels similar to my buddy's Super avenger. It also has a serial # below the model which cannot be seen in the pics starting with 998.
