Actually the hamburger, fries and shake would be a better value.

But otherwise it looks exactly the same.

But, the watch in question is a clear fake even to me.

SSD · 12 August 2007, 09:16 AM

Even uglier than a clownmaster. Maybe Jack Bauer would be interested in doing a flip...

SSD · 12 August 2007, 09:18 AM

BTW- Spacedweller's got almost all of them beat with that one!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tell your friend that he has one of the ugliest, saddest, worst fakes ever made.

(Actually don't tell him that, just send him to this thread)

ron17402 · 12 August 2007, 12:56 PM

That thing looks so fake, even the Street Sellers in Bangkok would not try to sell it!!!! LOL LOL

Tombstone · 12 August 2007, 07:18 PM

I have seen this style of Rolex before, it is the build your own Rolex watch kit. As a Boy Scout I earned the watch building merit badge and I later went on to design the CLOWNMASTER!!!!!!!!

Oh dear...........................

Look. It's very simple.

Tell your friend to put his money where his mouth is. Tell him to take his watch to an AD, and if it's genuine you'll give him $1,000!

That'll be the quickest $1,000 you'll ever make.

OR

Just ignore him.

John.

Great idea john. I called my friend and we are going to meet to go to an AD. I told him that i will give him 1000 euros if the watch is genuine. If the watch is not genuine he is going to give me 1000 euros. We are going to meet in a 2 hours to go to the AD.

frostie · 13 August 2007, 01:18 AM

Guys i have news. I went with my friend to the AD to prove me that his watch was genuine rolex. He didn't accept the bet of the 1000 euro cause he said that 1000 euro is not too much for him. He raised the bet to 2000 euros and i accepted the bet. So we went to the AD and he had to pay 60 euros so that the AD checks his watch. He gave the watch to the authorised watchmaker and the watchmaker got so angry for seeing a replica. He asked my friend where did he buy the watch and he answered that he bought the watch from switzerland. Then the watchmaker told him that this is the crappiest replica that he ever saw in his life and there is no point of checking the movement to see if the movement is genuine. You should see my friends face

. He felt so bad and actually i feel sorry about him cause he lost 2000 euros + 60 euros for checking the watch and he didn't listen to me from the beginning. In the end his watch got confiscated and then we left from the AD to go to the bank so that i can get the money that i won from the bet. My friend told me that he is going to start saving money cause he is thinking of buying a genuine rolex now. What remains a mystery is the price of the replica that my friend had before it gets confiscated. I asked him about the price of the replica but he didn't respond. Anyway i won the bet and i went home happy. I became by 2000 euros richer. that is 2740 $ . These were the easiest money i ever earned. Here are some pics of the grand prize

Wisher · 13 August 2007, 01:19 AM

that this watch has in common with the genuine thing is that they both were at some point in time in Switzerland.

I love all the humor. hee hee

Paulie · 13 August 2007, 01:20 AM

Ouch!

frostie · 13 August 2007, 01:22 AM

I warned him but he didnt want to listen to me . At least now he knows that i was right from the beginning. My advice to go to the AD cost him 2060 euros. That is a big OUCH !

My friend is such an idiot

I see your friend met JJ's AD

The closest thing this watch has been to Geneva was when the plane from China with the fake in the luggage compartment flew over Switzerland.

At that time the money he's given you is enough to buy a Rolex for yourself. And show him hard, don't you think?
