Is it real?

Aquired it a few days ago, took a picture, and have not got round to setting the date...

So, does it look real or is it a fake?

As fake as [TW]Fox's signature.

Possibly.

I would be more concerned about the black fog attempting to engulf your watch?

Fake. I can tell by the pixels.

I wouldn't know for certain but the fact you're even questioning it would suggest to me it probably isn't kosher as presumably you don't have the relevant papers etc?

It also may be just down to the photography but some of the black/dark lines on the silver hour markers look a bit squint. However I know very little about watches beyond either liking it or not, personally I'm not that keen on that watch but provided you like it and paid what you believe is a fair price then it doesn't matter what I think.

The quality of the face is also poor.

Well done

I knew it was a fake, as it is from Tenerife, a bloke wen round pubs selling them, and my old man saw his TAG on his wrist and said I want that one, next day he got one for 30Euros. I now have that watch.

this is fake too, albeit a higher quality

The watch I really want is a Hublot Geneve Red Devil Bang 44mm.
