Looks pretty legit to me. The margins for retail on that sort of thing are epic, so seller is probably still making a little profit on his cost price for that.

I think the bar code on the label is a step too far for a fraudster of course it could be from a different Boss item. I think it's real.
The barcode is, indeed, that of a H.B. Mens Driver Sport watch model 1513087

£101 is a reasonable price for a fake of that quality (if it is fake). It's not like you've dumped £5,000 on an ersatz Rollie.

I'm sure it's a real one anyway. But even if it wasn't, it would be a good watch for the price. And I doubt that anyone would suspect you're wearing a fake Hugo Boss watch.

All's well smile

Nobody would bother faking a £300 watch.
Correct, not to that standard anyway.
