Check the price first

Whoever you buy from, compare the asking price with the list price and the going rate. Our brand price lists give current list prices, and the market tracker shows what the same references are listed for on eBay today. A price far below both is the clearest sign of a fake or a scam. Before buying, check the size on your wrist with the fit finder.
