Total POS!

GradyPhilpott · 3 February 2012, 01:56 PM

That's one terrible fake, but at least his photos are top-notch.

He's hiding nothing.

Goodwill in Denver is selling this watch!

I had to put on my super-duper high powered spectacles to see the LEC, which is touted in the description, but it is enormous!

Reported.

ddnyc77 · 3 February 2012, 04:01 PM

I can't believe that was bid up to 2,400.

Dave S · 3 February 2012, 04:06 PM

Yep it's a fake. Reported.

dbphotos · 3 February 2012, 04:27 PM

Reported again.

I'll give the seller a break because its a Goodwill store in Denver so I'm sure they just thought that they hit the jackpot.

and again!

GradyPhilpott · 4 February 2012, 03:38 AM

I also reported this watch last night and sent an email to Goodwill in Denver, but for some reason it is still up.

Is Goodwill allowed to auction off a fake because they are a charity and say that the watch is not authenticated?

I would hope not.

scocope · 4 February 2012, 08:55 AM

It appears this Goodwill location is having serious issues; 92.7% positive feedback ratio and it's that low mainly from its 14 negative feedbacks all received in the last 30 days.

My thoughts exactly!

highcaliber7 · 4 February 2012, 10:02 AM

lets discuss everything wrong this watch, i'll start, #1 wrong bracelet..

GradyPhilpott · 4 February 2012, 10:10 AM

Triangular lume plot at 12 o'clock is crooked, or at least it looks crooked.

The coronet below is wacky.

The magnification is wrong.

The LEC is as big as a horsefly.

The coronet on the clasp is wrong.

highcaliber7 · 4 February 2012, 10:15 AM

"big as a horsefly" lol

GradyPhilpott · 5 February 2012, 09:08 AM

I can't believe that this item is still up and the bid is over $3500.

rjmarti · 5 February 2012, 10:08 AM

My max on it is capped at 3800.00 !!!!

Reported

texaco55 · 5 February 2012, 12:44 PM

As a newbie I am definitely not an expert, but ah...when the 12 marker is crooked even I know it's a FAKE. I reported it this afternoon, it's still up for autcion 6 hours later. Going to be an expensive lesson for someone...

scocope · 5 February 2012, 02:16 PM

Is the other Rolex they are selling authentic?

the distance between the 12 hour marker and the crown should be a little closer i think comparing it with mine. also the 24 hour hand is a bit sort. the 6 oclock marker is hitting the "swiss made" which it should not... its also is a W so why no lug holes?

It's down!

GradyPhilpott · 7 February 2012, 10:24 AM

As I mentioned earlier, I sent an email to Goodwill in the Denver area about their "Rolex" listing above.

In that listing, it clearly stated that the watch had not be authenticated.

This is their response to me.

I have deleted all personal information.

Dear Mr. Philpott,

Thank you for sharing this info with us. We had taken the watch to a jeweler and were told it was the real deal. In addition, he offered a $1000 on the spot. It was not our intention to sell a counterfeit item.
The item has been removed.

Again, thank you for pointing out our mistake. Your expertise is greatly appreciated.
