DABRANDS is also a reliable seller -- in Hong Kong.
Somebody should do a list of all the GOOD sellers in the Far East. Would be a lot shorter that way. :D

It's already been established that BI is not a sure way to spot a fake. Many authentic PRC200's owned by WUS members, including my own, have BI on the clasp.
Not sure what you see about the box that looks fake.
Actually, in my opinion, the watch looks legit. It also doesn't hurt that it's being sold by someone with over 450 transactions and 100% feedback.

HI!
I recently bought the same model in white with a brown band and it doesn't have the BI on the clasp, neither the genuine leather, mine had a coded sticker on the back aand the protective stickers were clear not blue...
We cancelled the buy, it was problelly a fake. But he make no problem of it...
Thanks this site i was able to recognise the fake.
Thx Jan
Sorry to tell you it is a fake one. You may notice there is a sticker with red line, which means the movement is from Miyota Citizen. How would a Tissot watch use Citizen's Movement? And the blue sticker around is disgusting. Original watches only use transparent one.
So you may still pay for it with paypal and check it with service center. If it turns out the authenticity is in question, please dispute on Ebay.
Cant believe he has 483 100% positive comment on ebay.
One more thing for spoting fake watch: pirates produce Tissot, D&G, Armani and Burberry in one place. So if you notice the seller only sells these brands without selling Seiko/Casio, the chance of being a fake one is pretty huge.

Why is this true? - Never mind. After a quick search on ebay, I see that all the Fake PRC200 from China have this red stripe on the back.
Wow, it's really a shame that ebay allows all these FAKES to be listed. It violates ebay policy to list and sell counterfeit items, yet ebay keeps a blind eye. All it would take is for an attorney from Swatch Group to report all these listings to ebay, and they would be pulled. I really don't know why watch manufacturers don't take more drastic measures. LVMH (parent to Tag Heuer) has filed multiple lawsuits against ebay for selling FAKE Louis Vuitton purses.

So buy with AD is a safer way to get authentic Tissot/other brands watch, or you may check the item with service center before completing the transaction.
For Ebay, if you proved the watch is fake, then you can report to them and have your money back. The most important thing is they will ban the seller's account forever.
For reference, if you get a Tissot watch for less than 60% of the retail price, please be aware as they have policy for that.
How do you know this? And how certain are you?
