I can see that ... now I know the word Fake is the real "F" word on this site :)

I was just curious not looking to buy one. Just wanted to know if this would be a easy way to spot a fakey

Probably, but I wouldnt count on it, those fakers are getting slick. If your concern is buying a used rolex that may be fake, I suggest that you meet the seller at an AD so the authenticity can be proven before an exchange of funds...


Oh and welcome to TRF!!

Welcome to TRF

Gentle nudge though, the rules state we don't discuss those here, don't want you to get into any bother.

There's a lot of places on the net to talk about fakes....this isn't one of them.
