nixen · 19 January 2012, 08:34 AM

thanks for helping guys. still learning about Rolex. I have been a fan of rolex but no knowledge about it. lol I’ll post more pic of the stuff I got from the service. BTW the picture I posted I am using a nato strap.

MonBK · 19 January 2012, 08:36 AM

Are you sure that's a picture of your watch?

I'm pretty sure I've seen it before.

I had posted a pic of my 14060 with the same nato, im sure there have been others with a 5513, 14060m with the same combo.

It looks real to me...

Congrats! I think maybe your Dad told you its fake so you wont borrow it. lol

Wear it in good health. Again, congrats.

PS, stop punching yourself in the face, its bad for you.

Nice "NATO Sub" btw what is the service charge (every 5 years?) for that model ?

TimeToGo · 19 January 2012, 08:39 AM

Looks like the hands and bezel insert were also replaced. The description on your service receipt will let you know what parts are included.

I asked the AD to have them changed whatever needs to be changed including dial and hands.

snaggle · 19 January 2012, 08:56 AM

from my knowledge, i would say im 99% sure its real. Everything looks fine.

dddrees · 19 January 2012, 09:05 AM

What shape were the dial, hands, and insert in before you turned in the watch?

Do you have a before PIC handy?

I don’y have a pic of the watch before sending it for service. I regret that I didn’t.

mjclark32 · 19 January 2012, 11:20 AM

Severely doubt it's fake if Rolex serviced it, charged you for it and gave you the warranty paper work. Congrats on the sub!

Mickey® · 19 January 2012, 11:23 AM

Love to know what they did to it. Sounds like an expensive overhaul! ($1100)
ALSO as of last year they are still doing SWISS dials??? That's good to know if true...
Congrats tho!

Probably a new crystal, bezel and lots of movement parts. Sounds like this hasn't had a service in a long time.

nixen · 19 January 2012, 12:05 PM

The last time this watch was serviced was 10 years ago...Yup bezel and movement parts were changed except this is not a crystal, it's plastic so they just buffed the plastic to take of the scratches.

Thanks guys! What a relief!

GradyPhilpott · 19 January 2012, 01:17 PM

It looks like you're one lucky guy.

A brand new 14060M would cost you $6300, plus tax at your AD.

liptonnr · 19 January 2012, 01:41 PM

This thread has confused me!

swatty · 19 January 2012, 01:47 PM

The service was done 6 months ago?

Yup! 6 months ago. Just wanted to make sure. Cuz I don't think I deserve to be here in the forum if I have a fake rolex even though I'm a watch lover just don't have enough funds to buy expensive watches.:)

Yet you said you just purchased a DJ II ? Is that fake too? Last time I checked the retail on DJ II is over 8K usd .... That seems expensive to me unless your definition of expensive watch is different...which I suppose it can be, it's all realtive.. Yet you were concerned about posting a fake watch but can afford a DJ II ? I think I'm confusing myself... Or this thread is still confusing...

nixen · 19 January 2012, 01:56 PM

Thanks for all the help guys and thanks TRF! What a relief for me!

rolepam312 · 19 January 2012, 02:40 PM

Why would you think your own dad will give you a fake watch ? Unless he got it unknowingly, which I doubt.. I would never pass on a fake watch, let alone to my own son!
This post makes no sense...

You wouldn't believe how many times we've read the lines, I inherited this watch and I know nothing about it, but is it real, it's for sale, etc., etc. etc.

It's a such a classic line that usually reveals a fake watch that members just get conditioned to expect a mess.

That's why many were confused or frustrated by the thread until we got some pix.

This story had a happy ending.

Unless he is aware his Dad collects/buys fake watches.

Regardless, we are pretty sure he has the real deal unless ....
