Need help, I think I purchased a fake sub :(

[LFFL]

well im getting conflicting messages.. you guys be the judge.












additional photos that were sent to me

[pensbay]

Does not seem to be fake.

[CrownMe]

the sub is far from fake. pearl is fine

[kilyung]

Looks fine to me. I'd be cautious about claims involving the "fake" word. You're potentially damaging the seller's reputation without cause. TBH I'd be pissed at such an accusation voiced in public without discussing any concerns with me first.

The pearl is not centred in the triangle, but to be fair to the seller the pictures clearly show that.

[LFFL]

Sorry about jumping to conclusions, I just came across a thread where they were talking about off center bezel pearls. It appears the new subc's come with a perfectly centered bezel pearl.

[Mrpedigree]

Because of the newer serial number an card etc i thought it would of had the newer type strap fitted thats the very old pre 2002 strap is it not ?
I would say thats a wrong un

[bondtoys]

The 14060 always came with the old type of bracelet (non-SEL)

[LFFL]

added photos.

I don't have the discerning eye for minor details that many here have, what makes you think it is not authentic?

[sea-dweller]

Looks OK from the photos.

wow U learn something new every day , i thought they did away with that type of strap pre 2002
In fact i am pretty sure i have seen a 2005 with the newer type strap ,hence why i thought in an instant this watch in the thread was a wrong un .
I hope i am wrong for the thread starter

[CrownMe]

the watch is 100% authentic. even if the pearl was off center you can turn it to straighten it out.


Some ceramic Rolex watches i have seen come from factory with the pearl crooked.

[Mrpedigree]

In my mind this is what a strap on a 2012 should look like ,this one below does not have that old type strap like the one in the thread and if you google that model from 2012 they have the same strap as the one below .

Hope i am wrong or am missing something.

[AK797]

looks good to me.

[mjclark32]

Looks ok to me

[Sixshooter]

Looks like a nice sub to me.

[TheMethod]

Looks the same as my watch to me.

That is a different model, this is the 14060M 4-liner with the older bracelet made until 2012.

Yes you're comparing the OP's 14060M to the newer 114060. Different watches.

[joe100]

The ND Sub always came with the old bracelet, it was one of the last holdovers

[Lgear080]

Send it to me if you don't like it ;)

[LFFL]

I appreciate your guy's input, my heart sank for a second, thank you for the reassurance!
Standby for arrival thread :)

Please spend some time learning before making statements about things that you know nothing about. Your statements are WAY OFF base in this thread.

What he said. You have a real sub and you overreacted.

[Lol-x]

Looks perfect.

[LFFL]

I know I did, I am sorry RF.
Cant wait for tomorrow!

[nameIess]

If you're still convinced its fake (which I believe it is not) and want to get rid of it, I'll buy it from you for a 1000 bucks (not bad for a fake! lol)
