I've been following WatchOut as a matter of self education to learn what's right and wrong about real and not real Rolexes. What I've learned is a great deal of what's wrong is in the way it's sold. There's not enough photos of this watch for a positive id. What do you see that is indicative of a fake? Thanks for your help. Best regards, Brian

So looking at the clasp what I see is that it appears to have additional markings/hallmarks that don't appear on a ss clasp? I have a TT Daytona and compared the markings and that's the differences that I see. Is that what you are referring to?
WatchOut is an incredible resource and is like CSI for Rolexes! But I have to admit that as a beginner I'm often left in puzzlement because many of the discoveries of fakes don't have enough information about exactly what is wrong with the fake. It's like taking the punch line out of a joke and skipping to the laugh track. Thanks! Best regards, Brian |

the key number is .750, 18k with two hallmarks. if it was a 18k white gold
it would be a different model number and it would have a different shaped hallmark |

About everything is wrong with this watch , pushers , bezel , screws and yes most of all the clasp is a dead giveaway . They don't come more obviously fake as this .
