The latest Super Avenger replica is exceptionally good.

I think this one is real but I wouldn't buy without full paperwork.

A couple notes - this watch was sold to a friend from the same guy who tried to sell me and my other buddy replicas. (navitimer and an evolution) i know it did not come with proper papers. The chronomat resets to the 3 minute mark instead of 0, and also the indicators should have a clear black space in between the two silver pieces of each hour. Instead as you can see it is basically just a "clear" line in the middle of them and not a solid black space. It's definitely tough to tell and he is going to an AD to get it looked at but i'm pretty sure it's a fake.

OK, the credibility of the seller is not good so that creates strong doubts.

It's hard to tell the batons on that photo; some look OK, others don't.

Of significance is the s/n is only 50 or so different from the stock photo of the replica (which have different s/n) so that also suggests a replica.

Given the background, I'd now be far more inclined to think it's fake.

And without paperwork, I definitely wouldn't touch it!
