This watch caught my eye, not interested in buying, but it's got something about it. It's for sale in the Philippines & when I first saw it, I thought it was an a/m franken type of thing but that dial looks to be quite good quality to me. Is it from another Seiko or just a good repro ? Case-back says 7002-700A which is another red light. Surely the 7002 Professional doesn't exist ? I can't find any reference to it apart from a couple of similar looking pieces which were sold by a UK seller who thinks it's okay to sell A/M as original. I just thought that the dial text looked 'right', apart from there being none under the 6 marker. What is it ? Friend or foe ? Probably foe, but that dial has me intrigued.

I'd say Feiko.
If you look closely at the "Seiko", it looks painted and there appears to be paint runs onto the dial.

Sshhh ! You'll wake Peter up. It's not being sold by Loy but it's in his neck of the woods. I don't look at his watches but had heard his dial's had got better. That's probably one of the best a/m dials I've seen. They usually make me want to scream.

The printing on this one is way better than his stuff chinathumbsup.gif Still a fake dial though

If it's for sale on EBAY and there's one AM part on it there's a 99% percent chance everything is AM.
If it is coming out the Phillipines you can bump that up to 99.9% chance its all AM and you better get a tetanus shot.
