I found this watch online... Is this legit

George18

Good afternoon guys,

I'm new to collecting watches and I found this watch on marketplace costing only 50€. What do you guys think, is this legit? And how much would you value this watch?

Thanks in regard

This is quite possibly legit, meaning that manufacturers may make custom-label watches, especially quartz watches. Based on the strap alone I would think the watch has been through a lot, and the wear is pretty noticeable in the picture. 

I think you would be able to find PR 50s in a better condition for that price, unless you are particularly interested in the Smirnoff label.

This could be a good story.

Thank you very much!

I assume it is legit because if you are going to go through the trouble to counterfeit a watch why not build a $100,000.00 Patek rather than a $100.00 Tissot.  I have seen a counterfeit $700.00 watch.
