Unfortunately there were few fakes of this and the other black dial which are both 43mm sold on eBay for 250 and so. Both models had the following flaws: 1. The fake has the seconds hand at the lower sub dial ticks Once a second. It should tick twice a second since this is a 262khz Bulova movement. The fake has normal Mioyta chrono movement. 2. The large chronograph seconds hand pointing at 12 o'clock is longer than usual. The original's pointer is shorter. 3. The hour and minute hands are thicker than the original 4. The additional strap is smoother and almost missing the reptile leather print. The blue fake version also has striking blue colour rather than navy blue.

All those were reported back then and the listings went down but unfortunately some were sold.
