Book on Fake Rolex Watches

Hi guys,

as many of you might have noticed, I was in Berlin recently. I forgot all about telling that I bought a book on fake Rolex watches.

I have many books on Rolex, including James Dowling "Best of Time - Rolex wristwatches", "The Rolex Report", Kesaharu Imais "2421 Rolex watches" and "Time in gold" to name a few.

Here are some pics from the book (also a pic of the edge, if you want to buy the book. Might find it somewhere on the Internet).

Cover:


There is also a chapter for YOU, JJ! :



And of course! The Daytona:




And the GMT II:


And for example the DJ:


The Sub is of course also represented. + Many more models.

Here is a pic of the book edge:


Just wanted to share

From what I see on the pictures, they never get the height of the numbers on the bezel right, might be an illusion
Somebody said if the producers find a fault in their design they fix it within the week, so no point in buying too many 'fake' books?
IMO the best way to spot em is by buying the real thing and looking at it until you dream about it
