There is a new attorney that started working for us. I wanted to see what you guys think of this?..
It only says "swiss" on the bottom?...is that correct?

mrbill2mrbill2 · 19 August 2011, 08:23 AM

Dial appears to be off - rotated a little clockwise.

Something about the bracelet looks off to me.

I think that your new attorney has very bad taste in watches..

Hard to say from a single photo.. the dial is fake, the bezel is likely aftermarket too as they didn't generally put such things on SS DJ's.. The bracelet is from a decade ago or more (if real at all)

At worst, it is a fake... at the least it is an older DJ that's been rebuilt with aftermarket enhancements..

scarab007 · 19 August 2011, 08:44 AM

Def not the expert yet in telling fake from real, but this just looks off in so many ways.

T-Rip · 19 August 2011, 09:10 AM

interesting

What makes the dial fake IYO.. Thanks.

scottjb411 · 19 August 2011, 10:13 AM

It's just custom dial and bezel. Possibly Italian bracelet. I don't think it looks bad. Just not 100% authentic. Have to see the mvmt to verify.

Numismatist · 19 August 2011, 10:24 AM

This one we need to see the movement.

Woof

Stonedcl · 19 August 2011, 11:07 AM

What did you say to the guy when you took a pic of the watch "I want to get it authenticated for you can I please snap a couple of quIck pics of your dj"?

I told him that I was looking at buying a new rolex and I was wanting to see what that style looked like on my wrist and to show the pick to my wife. It also has a super faded lime green sticker on the back.

Capstone · 19 August 2011, 01:01 PM

For the sake of all that is Rolex, please let that watch be fake.

It's pretty bad I know. I don't have the heart to tell him I think it's fake though.

That looks like a botched plastic surgery, I hate when the diamond bezel is wider than the original. Its so wide it almost covers up the crown, Rolex does a better job of making their own diamond bezels. It might be a real Rolex, with aftermarket parts.

SUBversive · 19 August 2011, 10:40 PM

He let you take a pic of his watch? How did that come about....real or fake, def way over the top.

Nasty

MonBK · 21 August 2011, 07:10 AM

Font on the dial is all wrong.

Keeperoftime · 21 August 2011, 07:11 AM

Aftermarket. Though, I have seen factory replacement/service dials with the words swiss only.

capote · 21 August 2011, 08:33 AM

Like they say: you can't buy taste.

Polemic · 21 August 2011, 08:54 AM

Scary. It's too bad a man's watch with diamonds, even it is fake or genuine.

If it was an original dial with just added diamonds, it would be an "aftermarket"..

This one has overly inked fonts, a poor crown at 12 o'clock, and has therefore been manufactured to look like a Rolex dial; a fake.. Or, it may have been refinished but done poorly..

T-Rip · 21 August 2011, 12:07 PM

Thanks for all the info.
