Bracelet does not go with the watch and all the other pictures are too blurry to see the details.

Did the watch once belong to a generous octogenarian?

Let me guess, you bought it on eBay from a guy who inherited it from his grandfather.

If you aren’t going to sincerely attempt to answer the question, why bother posting?

These are pretty bad photos, but, even with bad photography, this can be seen to be a counterfeit watch. Sorry.

1) Because the question was probably not asked sincerely

2) Humour

Oh man, I had never thought of that. I bet that’s why we’re not allowed to post about fakes here.

and most importantly

5) the famous OP first post "is it real thread".

probably 80% of the forum who ends up with 1 post, asks this question. So its always suspect based on that. We can tell if its a sincere question, this isn't hardly ever.

Can we get to a place as a group that we just ignore these threads?! If the OP isn’t smart enough to google pictures of the watch and compare, let nature take its course. The world is a tough place.


I feel bad for people getting tricked into fake watches, when they look real. I do not feel bad for this.
