What steps would you use to evaluate this watch?
I hope you see this post in the light it is intend (please no kill joy posters)..
I am new here as some known Here is a Ebay listing for a Rolex watch, I have not decided if it is genuine or not. But looking at the listing there is at least one thing I would ask of the seller. Here is a link to the Rolex watch http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2710223443...84.m1423.l2649 My task if you accept it is to, without using Acronyms, go the through thought processes you would use Evaluating the watch and what questions you would ask the seller. No cheating, no refering to others posts.. This is just for fun and also to help educate others.. |

Start a thread of your own (In the watchout section), and post some pics, as there's no need to piggyback this thread started by someone else.

Proberly sold for about
Proberly sold for about £200 pounds.
cost £10 ! Well as a mechanical watch maybe £5 as a curiosity, but people will know your wearing a funny fake. Behind your back they will be saying this guys deals in rip off goods. Do you really want to lose your good name, amongst people who know you? Do you perfer to be known, as the guy who sells fake items? Just a opinion, a suggestion... |

Onion, I don't know you. But you seem eager to defame me a new poster to this forum, why? This section is watchout and includes discusion about watches, as to legitiomacy, authenticity, replication or conducting of fraud. I post two of my purchases here to have the experienced people here confirm my suspicion that they was fake Rolex. I decided they was but I need people with greater experience of the two watches posted! I realise I can not know everything in the world so I am always learning, I am not as lucky as yourself who is alway right!, By the way can you tell me the winning numbers for next months, English million pound lettory, this month in advance? I was not aware that you are the forum Troll hunter, have you by chance watched or read the Salom witch trials? I seem to be getting flash backs.. You have posted comments in several of my threads, is it your normal practise to hijack other peoples threads? Can I ask what emperical datum lead you to the conclusion, that since I was unsure of the the two other watches I would not refrence to checks elsewhere on the Internet as to the back case of the Rolex Daytona? Lastly is this your normal greating to new members on the form or is there a click? I have upset? I wish for you a good day and may you live in interesting times.. |

If English is not your first language, you may be forgiven your poor syntax. If English is your primary language, you are indeed a troll. In any case, we will be watching you. And one very strong suggestion. Do not argue with a moderator. You will lose every time. And the last time you lose will be your last post on TRF.
