Be aware fake Ebay Heuer diver

As the prices of the big vintage Heuer diver watches has risen, some sellers are temted to put together franken / fake Heuer divers.

Keep off this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/VERY-RARE-HEUER-1000-FULLSIZE-QUARTZ-SS-MENS-DIVERWATCH-/270614669344?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Wristwatches&hash=item3f01e42820

It has refinished dial, wrong bezel, wrong later movement with fake logo, badly relumed hands and wrong caseback from a later Heuer 2000 diver.

The bracelet looks ok and has a Heuer clasp.
