Retro Swatch purchase Real or Fake?
I have an old Swatch Irony from the 90's which I wore in high school. It has a cracked crystal which I wanted to replace, but no one services these watches.
I eventually found a seller from the Netherlands who does retro Swatch. I bought the same watch new from old stock with the mind to use it as replacement parts or just use it as it is.
But I noticed that the engraving on the caseback is missing the logo. Everything else looks the same and the watches both weight the same. Is this an earlier batch or a sample piece? Do others have this issue? My original watch is on the left, and the recent purchase is on the right side of the photo.
Thanks in advance.
Watches were a passion since I was a child. I remember as a teenager walking into dealers asking for catalogues. I used to collect those too.
