Real or fake Oyster Perpetual Date Just
I know it's in bad shape. I would like to sell it if its real. Should I get it overhauled or sell it like it is in order to make the most money at the end of the day?

.... ....Are you serious?
1. The Rolex corona on the face is wrong..very wrong. 2. The links are made from rolled sheet metal. Not solid machined steel. 3. The gold plating is coming off the midlinks. 4. The swiss made at the bottom of the face is all over the place. Suggesting the person was drunk when they made it. 5. The magnification in the cyclops is wrong. 6. It's not worth anything. Sorry but that is probably one of the worst fakes I have ever had the displeasure of seeing. |

"Rolex116520 - X2
Only point 2 is not always applicable in these cases ." Some genuine bracelets are not made from solid steel? Can you please show a picture of a real one? So I know for the future? ;) I'm aware a hollow midlink is a Rolex trademark but the kind of workmanship visible on that fake is awful! *shudders* |

The corona looks like a stalked eyed alien. Hope I don't have nightmares...

So maybe I'm really tired now, but I had to read Onikage's comments and then I went 'oh, yeah...drunk watch maker...I see it now.' I seriously laughed my ass off at myself. And ended up doing a Where's Waldo all over that photo. So why don't you all join me by inserting your emoticon of choice right here X
