Fake Apple Watch or not?

Hi, I found a seller for Apple Watch ultra online. The serial number shows it was genuine and bought in March. How can I make sure it’s not fake? The reason im

worried is seller has only 4 friends on Facebook (saw ad in marketplace) and is selling 4 Apple Watches. What else can I validate to make sure of the watch’s authenticity?

Is my apple watch fake? I have an Apple watch SE 1 gen, both on the chassis and the system info contains the same serial number and it's verified in apple's check coverage site, and also shows the apple logo on startup, etc. But just recently I've heard that fake ones can fool people by using an existing apple watch serial number, what can I do to be 100% certain that my apple watch is original?
