Bought this for my girlfriend awhile back but now I am questioning it being authentic. Can any of you guys help me authenticate this to being real? I am uploading pictures right now.

serial # p863698
model # 114270
Oyster Perpetual Datejust

You have the model and the serial numbers reversed. Furthermore, that model number is for the 36mm Explorer I.

Can't wait to see the pics.

You need to wait or PM a Mod directly and see if he can help.

The watch is a total fake, note the laser etched serial.

for future refrences can you guys post a picture of your rolexs serial number? I just want to see the actual difference.

And no need to apologize, I didnt get ripped off...as these are worth a few hundred dollars, correct?

Sorry, but we don't post serial numbers here. Too easy for nefarious types to rip them off and put real serial numbers on fake watches.

No one is going to post pics of their serial numbers. Lets make that clear.

Further, judging by your last comment it seems you knew it was a fake when you bought it.

So, what the hell are you coming on to this forum for and asking members here to authenticate an item that you knew was fake? Why make out you didn't?

Time up.

We don't have room here for people like you.

It's now clear that you knew it was fake from the last comment you made about it only being worth a few hundred and stating you didn't get ripped off.

You had ample time to respond to me but chose not to.

Further, you then asked for copies of members serial numbers.

The conclusion.....faker looking to make /create a better product.

It's Fake

Just google P863698

Here is some of the hits you will get.

Note: that this serial number has been questioned on this forum before.

Fakers use the same serials over and over again.

Why give him any help.... Its obvious what he was trying to do.. I dont get why some people try to "help" point out ALL the reasons why their watch is fake...

I very rarely see a genuine rolex when someone has to ask weather or not the watch is fake. Have the watch checked out if you don't know what you are buying. You should also have the watch checked out if someone gives it to you (inheritance) or as a form of payment.

X2. If you want to know how to tell a fake, spend some time here and do your research. That's how I learned. You don't get to be an expert in a day.
