Thanks for the heads up. I intend to be fairly thorough if buying on eBay etc. an original receipt would help piece of mind.

I would like to think a jewellers would only have genuine items though.

Indeed but Goldsmiths Manager (A friend) could not say for certain until he took the back off and found a Seiko movement in an Omega watch. i took it tto him to have independent evidence if i need to take the matter further

It would be easier just to buy new!

Sadly I just could not justify spending circa £2k on a watch.
