Where is the gentleman from Texarkana?

I graduated from Texas Senior High School in Texarkana, TX, in 1967, by the way.

so what everyone is saying is that if OP had taken pic at 730, we'd all still be drooling and handing out congrats?
scary scary how good those fakes are being made, add a box and unwary buyer and its over.

@ everyone
I hope the OP genuinely didn't know it was a fake

Happy for this forum for the experts who can spot fakes, although in this case it was right underneath our noses

This is not considered a good fake so you can imagine what are, so always always buy from a trusted seller only - you have no chance on ebay etc. Just dont do it!

Dear friends, the OP is laughing his butt off in a Folex forum that he has misled TRFers with his watch. Post header is "I love when TRFers look stupid".

I have alerted the moderators and I guess hell be banned in no time. What a sick guy.

We get a few who like to pretend they can run with the big dogs.. It's just an immature game they like to play.

In the end, they know what they have..

Well, for the OP's sake, I hope he did realize that it was fake, otherwise he just got taken for $7K+. The fact that there has been no followup suggests that he is aware of it. It was definitely in poor judgement and taste to post it here.

No wonder the lugs looked a little funny to me but didn't raise enough suspicion. Great observation
