It would be 1000X better if he mentions it’s a rep dial and case. His title is misleading but the description is good enough that anyone who knows what a 3646 is will know that the movement isn’t right.
At least his starting price is low.....

Shoot, at least he mentions it’s a 6497 movement.
Better than some of the fake Rolex movements sold on eBay with no mention of anything.

Wow reached to €360 now. EBay is a good market for HF goods.
Let's see how high it can get.

With a buy it now price that low, I don't think he is trying to fool anyone into thinking it's a gen 3646. If anything maybe his buy it now is slightly inflated. But depending on who made the parts it might actually be a good deal. It doesn't appear to be a particularily cheap build.

Tafari and myself already reported the listing to eBay.
There is also a discussion about this listing in the standard eBay thread.

It's not blatant, but it's misleading. "Looks to be from 1940" Most people that don't know about the HF world will read that as the true age of the watch. We know it could mean someone made it to look like it's from the 40s.
Agree the price is a dead giveaway and I am totally against protecting idiots. Anyone looking for a PAM already knows the prices and will realize this is too good to be true, but it's still very misleading since we all know that his intentions are to skew reality.

This watch was mine,sold to a member here but I know he is not the seller of eBay.
He is also using my pics...
I have asked him to remove the sale or at least my pics,he has send me smiles and told me to fuck off...
In my opinion should be reported.
