Real or fake sub?

Hi Guys,

I used to have a account on here, but I forgot the username etc so I had to set a new account up.

I have just come accross this 'Rolex Sub' and I would like to know your views on this watch, I can get my head round if its a real sub?

Its all black, including the band, but the date dosnt POP outlike my other Rolexs.

I will try and attach a few pics and if you could let me know your views.

Thanks in advance.

Amazing, that cyclopse actually shrinks the size of the date! This thread needs to be shurt down or moved to WATCH OUT subforum. I hate posts from new members asking for our opinions on fake Rolexes! ARGH!!!! Ban this joker's IP address so he can't come back on a different name

Me too, I'm green but not that green ! The lack of magnification on the cyclops says it all for me. Ming.

Normally you can go a 1000 ft deep . . .

This one you can trow 1000ft away . . .

First ask . . . than buy . . .

Hope you paid not more than $ 250.00

FAKE!!!

1. Bad date magnification
2. Date alignment is no good
3. Hour markers are wierd
4. Wrong model#on the back
5. Crown Guards are too wide.
6. Insert's skin seems to bubble over (between 40 &50 and past 50)
7. The way the bracelet attaches to the case, from the back looks wrong.
