Rolex Oyster Chosmograph-Real or Fake?
I have been offered the attached watch for sale but I am sceptical as to whether it is real or not. Can you experts help a brother in need!
Thanks in advance, Ross |

Don't buy from a seller you don't trust.

If real (which I seriously doubt), it would be astronomical $$$. Run away.....maybe.

Hi guys
Yes I obviously have my doubts over the watch, however I am not an expert and would plan to have it verified somewhere. I love my watches but I'm in no way an expert. I know (a little!) about the Newman Daytonas and when I got offered this, I recognised this straight away. From your comments it's more than likely a fake but I shall have the watch checked out and report! Thanks for your help, Ross |

Utterly and devastatingly awful fake.
Just in case there was any doubt. |

Fake. I'd recommend taking some time to read the forums for insight.
