Thanks to my last spill, I need a new watch. This eBait seller has one, but I'm wondering if it's really genuine Triumph. Does this style really have a MSRP of $500? I couldn't find it shown anywhere else. Any advice on this?

Wow, nothing better than first-hand knowledge! Do you know where they're made?

The two I purchased had Swiss movement, this was confirmed by a local jewler...they came in some very substantial , leather cases with Triumph stamped into them. I was told that I had probably purchased stolen product as they(the jewler) could not sell that quality for the price I paid ( I had been looking at a Breitling)....If they are fakes...someone lost money making them ................That is just my experience.....

Only applies to Speedmaster owners sadly but here is an alternative watch, The Omega speedmaster.
Here is a couple of pics of my fake one

I bought one off ebay before also.... only cost me 1 cent and 9.99 for shipping. that was a few years ago and it hasn't even needed a new battery.
