Don't suppose reporting would work. Just a very expensive Franken watch.

I would imagine it only being a true counterfeit when something marked Rolex is not genuine Rolex.

Funny thing is, if someone purchases this without doing their homework they will receive a watch that will likely perform just as well as the unaltered version, especially if the movement was a fresh 2836. I would be truly surprised if it was a genuine swiss movement though, likely asian clone trash.

The bracelet is absolute trash, look at the endlink fitment.

I wouldn't be surprised if the whole watch is a replica, with the exception of the dial. I don't really like that crystal, something about the cyclops is off.

IMO it is a fake case with a non-rolex movement and is badged as a rolex........its a fake!

whats the difference in buying a AAA replica and putting a genuine dial in it? its still a fake!
if it quacks like one then it is one.... and this one doesnt have the heart a rolex and its dial states it is one which in my book is FAKE
