Missing informationCore fields not yet documented for this reference: Case diameter, Caliber, Water resistance, Dial
Case
What to inspect
The economical counterfeit reproduces the shape in plated steel. It fails both material checks at once: too light for tungsten carbide, and it scratches. Where the plating has worn through at an edge, the base metal is visible and settles the matter.
Dial
What to inspect
Reproducing a freely pivoting emblem on a dial costs more than printing one, so counterfeits routinely print it. Tilt the watch: the genuine anchor moves.
