The Calatrava crosses, especially on the orange card, are perhaps the easiest giveaway. Sad situation, though they've been doing this with many brands (most noticeably Rolex) for ages ;-) [nt]

The horrible work of the Chinese Fake hits the Patek Philippe Watch Box market with this horror......

Hello all, I am a fellow Patek Philippe lover and hoarder...... anyhow I just came across this fake..... Almost had me..... but you can tell it is FAKE! eBay refuses to remove!!! ...

Not sure if that is a bad camera shot

but the design on the box is not as clear as the original box is. Also, the guarantee card is incorrect unless they have just changed it to orange lately. For a start, there is no guarantee card with Patek!!

He writes "Aftermarket box" in the description which will probably cover his ass when a buyer realizes it's fake. [nt]

Agreed. He did not say it is real

"aftermarket" means not original PP. No problem here and the guy has 100 percent feedback.

the buckle seems wrong too

but I only have 1 patek tho so not sure i'm aware of all the possible box buckle designs Patek may make... mine looks like the buckle from the watch, not a rectangular thing like this one. Cheers, Kev
