Not really getting why you posted this here... Are these watches yours or someone else's???? And if they're yours shouldn't you know if it is real or fake??!!! In reality both those watches come to over $60,000!!! I'm going to say fake just because you had to ask the question! No one should ever purchase those watches unless you knew they were real! Oh nice Shoes to go with your two all gold "Rolexes", You don't generally see people with a gold day date on and rockin those kicks!!

Obviously these aren't mine or I wouldn't be questioning the authenticity of them. Someone has them for sale and those are his "kicks"

"Here, wanna buy my Rolex??' "See it's on my wrist!!!! So, now can you buy it" Lol.. I would never buy a watch from someone who used a wrist shot of the watch(s) they wanted to sell!!! Seems kind of unprofessional to me! Which I don't find very relieving when it comes to that big of a purchase!!

The OP is referring to the shoes in the second photo.
It would seem that the OP or someone took the pictures of the watches on the arm of the owner and the OP posted them here with the request for an authentication. They look good to me, because the things I usually look for look good, but I'm not going out on a limb without some more shots of the watch, so that the knowledgeable ones can look at the hallmarks, and the numbers stamped on the bracelet and the clasps. These are vital to accurately judge. The skepticism that they are real, comes from the enormous cost of these two watches and the unlikelihood that someone would rely on some pictures on a discussion board for an authentication. Get thee to an AD.

I do believe that our friend FremStar not only owns an extensive collection of Rolex watches, but also has an extensive collection of sports shoes, so that's not a reliable indicator.

Well it wasn't just the shoes for me... It was the shorts that came down nearly to the shoes... Kind of the shorts sagging wearing J's kind of thing.. Which I would still consider as a prob in my opinion. I mean lets be honest, I really don't know anyone who could afford that watch and have that style.. Well unless he's buying from a rapper. Or well maybe a dru... Well I'll just leave it at that.. Stereotyping again though.. yes it's my flaw!!! .. Lol

Are you serious? Many good sellers are hobbyists and post wrist shots of their watches for sale. This is funny coming from a guy whose avatar is a wrist shot.
This section is about whether or not a watch is fake. If you don't like the idea, then don't reply rudely.

****AND I would like to say sorry to anyone I may have offended, but all to often do we have members on the forum who post pics of themselves with their own Rolexes seeing if they'll pass for a real... Needless to say it wasn't my place to be rude or unkind. ***Now to the guy who made the thread, We welcome you here and hope you find this place as a good resource, I am sorry if I may have thought that was you in the pics. However as a personal guide in my own opinion, I would move with caution on those pieces... It may just me or the way I am... But I don't generally see people wearing 18K Gold day dates with that kind of dress, but that's me stereotyping... Which is wrong of me. So GoodLucK & Welcome!

Hi sabeast. Might I suggest that if you really would like a quality real Rolex at a good price, you check out the trusted sellers on this forum. I say this because their prices are usually real and their Rolexes certainly are. Really, if it's at a "too good to be true" price, run. Trust me. I've made many FleaBay mistakes. The people here are top notch but sometimes a bit crusty because we get tons of people trying to get the experts to verify their fake crap just so they can say "see, the rolexforum says it's real"

This sub forum is here to evaluate Rolex watches for members. If some members choose to go off on tangents looking for ulterior motives then they need to be correct in their assumptions or carry the can.

With all the thefts of these high profile type watches lately I would be extremely careful if the price is too good.

So you haven't seen QC's shorts collection either?
Shoes?....shorts?....you should quit while you're behind mate. Those watches look good sabeast but what does that mean? and where do you go from here?

Welcome, the pieces look ok to me, but I'm far from an expert and more pics are necessary (I know you're working on getting them)

I think that Mr. President was just having a stressful day. It happens to us all.
If I were Obama, I'd be stressed too!
