^ For 1 look at that rehault. It looks like a spaceship or deep dish pizza pan. Day/Date wheels should be champagne to match dial. His are white. The rails and minute markings on his are way too bold.

Heaps more things

Here's a pic of another online:

Location of the words "Swiss" and "Made" is off. Bracelet look exhausted and the color seems wrong. It's a fake.

I see what you are saying now, like it's angled inward instead of at 90 degrees to the dial. Good point

The font and printing of Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date and the superlative chronometer officially certified and the swiss made text looks totally different.

The day window is the wrong color and the rehaut is wrong also.

IMO the watch is 100% fake.

This kid is trying way too hard to justify his fake watch.
Get over it boy, either you've been played hard (and I would feel bad for you) or you're trying to troll.
You're on a collectors forum, might have picked the wrong audience.

Well then send better pictures. Also, why are the words "Swiss" and "Made" in a different location? Also they are not evenly spaced with each other, they line up different.

Let’s get Larry or one of the other Mods on here and settle this once and for all

(But I’m convinced it’s a fake)

LOL..... hate to be judgmental but that watch definitely has flaws based on the pics provided. If that's not a replica/fake then I don't know what is.

While you're at it, include box and papers as well. Or did you buy it without from your AD?

We just need a pic of the crystal at 6 o'clock that shows the laser etched coronet and the rehaut, then it should be easier to verify.

Do these watches have “Rolex” and the serial number in the rehaut? Do not need to see the actual serial number, but I am not seeing a trace of it.

The box doesn’t prove anything. Anyone can buy a box. The tag or receipt or warranty card with the serial number whited out would help, but is still not dispositive.

Interested to see how this sorts out.

Would like to see the etched crown at six o'clock. Also fresh pictures would help. Too many things look off.
