Would need to see some marks, Artx. The dial is marked and the base should be, too. Closer image of the dial and base

Lots of dodgy copies / fakes like this about.

Read the description on Wullies link then see if the info on yours matches the wording !! If so is likely same seller and may have a few of them !!

i,d say there was a very good chance that there was more of them...and that ad on ebay...is to draw unsuspecting buyers..as for the ."Free Postage"...that,s a carrot....

What are the chances of two being offered at the same time and almost identical ??

Exactly.

The other question - does it look Russian ? Aside from the obvious Faberge / Egg thing, it looks poorly made and monotone for a country which prided itself on use of colour and attention to detail.

Read the feedback.  They are crooks.  Items never received and they bought most of their own items to boost feedback.  Two buyers left several feedback repeatedly.  All good of course.  How do people like that stay on there?
