Internet speculation suggests that the brand Markus Ruby is a scam: their principal online retailer (Hewett International Ltd. aka. Ebay's timepiece-direct) is also listed as the registrar of the Markus Ruby website. The watches are sold 'discounted' on Ebay by the very company that listed their inflated RRP in the first place. Furthermore, it is not known whether a Markus Ruby watch may be bought in an actual store.
