Fake Time Bomb II on eBay?

Looks like somebody may be trying to sell a replica Time Bomb II as if it were authentic:
see eBay item 121745172777
Buyer beware! Seller has re-listed this watch as eBay item 121754547674
 
You have a good point about the rotor (the large moving piece in the movement that effectively winds the watch). If the pics on the left are of a genuine one, it is finished in what is known as Cotes de Geneves, a rising and falling decoration reminiscent of waves on the shore of Lake Geneva. Letters are applied directly within each "wave" of the decoration, with 2 blank waves outside. The eBay one has separate stripes marked to look like CdG but not being as expensive to create and the Oakley text on a polished window within. I'll tell you right now, the eBay rotor was quicker and cheaper to produce, which doesn't bode well for correctness...
