Just brought a gucci watch from ebay, seller has 1 feedback, send the payment?

Interesting! Am very curious to find out the ending. Slightly off the subject, my OH was given a Gucci watch by a work collegue - not as a present but my OH was without a watch for a few weeks and this guy said he had too many watches which he didn't wear anymore. He doesn't want it back. My OH doesn't wear it anymore and I was thinking of selling it on Ebay. How do I make sure that it is a genuine one? I have only recently started selling on Ebay and don't want to land into any trouble. Any suggestions to make sure that it is not a fake? Thanks.

"Any suggestions to make sure that it is not a fake?"

I would take it to a couple of local jewellery/watch shops that buy & sell these items to gauge their opinion and value.

Oh come on OP, you can't be that naive? If that watch is real I'll eat my own balls.

Quoted for posterity (just in case ), but I think your appendages are quite safe.

Found this picture on a replica watch site:

This is what the supposed original would have looked like but it isn't in Gucci's current range so not sure if it's a made up design or just a replica of an older design. Still doesn't have that horrible 'in face' balance though.

Are you allowed to send fakes back?
