Due to my current search for a used Yachtmaster, I have become obsessed with knowing more about Rolexs, specifically there movements. Upon looking at replica sites, it is VERY scarry to find YMs with fat minute hands, laser enscribed crowns, full engravings, etc.

With all of that said, what do I need to look for when checking out the movements? Are fakes making the movements look like actualy Rolex 3185s, or is it apparant that once you pop the back and see everything polished and with 3185 on the baseplate that its authentic. I am new to the world of used watches, as most all of my past have been new.

Any and all insight about how to identify a true 3185 is greatly appreciated!
