Honestly, these pictures are horrible and i wouldn't make a determination on either based on them. There are a couple of things that look fishy- but seriously, you can't expect anyone to weigh in with these terrible photos.

If you need to ask authenticity questions on these then I don’t know where to start!

Is this a serious post?
These are some of the shittest fakes iv ever seen. Assuming by your location these were bought from a “looky looky” man at the beach and listed for sale. If you are having to ask this you definetly aren’t competent enough to be buying a watch in a private sale. Please, do yourself a favour and buy from a reputable dealer if you are in the market.

I come here specifically to be educated. IE just saying "fake" doesn't educate me. Telling me what is wrong or why educates me.. If they are fakes fair enough neither are watches I'm particularly interested in but they were offered to me so with caution I posted here. I'm guessing this forum isn't a biggest dick competition and always considered it as helpful and friendly.. back on topic: The guy selling them insists he bought them from Preston UK. My radar pinged when he also offered a Speedmaster with a tourbillon!. But tbf he did say it was a fake! He's also a very well known and respected business man so it's not some looky looky man or FBN type.. I don't know him but many of my (now ex as I retired at Christmas) customers knew and did business with him for years and never had a bad word to say about him. He's also offered to meet at an approved Rolex dealer (or there is a local highly experienced watch repair guy from Germany who has vast experience of all the top makes.) So he's highly confident of the authenticity but as suggested here he's in for a big surprise. Anyhoo as I say I came here for proper information .. |

Meeting "a watch repair guy from Germany" is a natural continuation to this story.

No you're misunderstanding the German watch repair guy has had a watch repair shop here in Los Cristianos for decades. Hes very well respected . He repaired my EXPII a few years ago. I have full faith in him . |

If you have eyes...then simply compare pics of genuine articles to the fake junk you posted here. Why is this so hard? |

you clearly have the internet, so I don't understand how you can't find one of the billion genuine Daytona or GMT pics via google and spend, what, 10 seconds playing spot the glaring difference? The other parts of your story, business men and German experts, don't matter, they're rubbish fakes.
