Are you serious in your question?
Fake: -does not use Rolex movement, uses Jap, China, raw ETA movements -316L SS, not 904L -Not waterproof -No warranty -cost less $$ -You buy one you support organized crime -Breaks easy Real: -Uses Rolex cal movements -904L SS -Waterproof, depends for each model up to 4000ft -2 year warranty if bought from anAD -Tried tested and true

Good answer, Vernon!
I suggest to our new member that he buy "The Rolex Report". That is a very good "encyclopedia" to study the signs of fake Rolex watches. To buy it, visit this site: http://www.qualitytyme.net/pages/rolex_or_replica.html

If you're shopping for a Rolex watch, you'd better stick to an authorized dealer. If you can't spot a fake then it's really the only option you have.

We're talking about a fake Rolex. Granted, there are gen watches that are not waterproof.
