I inherited this watch along with a Michael Schumacher world champion 2002 Omega. I know nothing of watches.. Is it real or a fake? Thanks Ron

It does have the crown with three dots and o-ring on the stem and the green hologram on the back... The hands look correct as we.. But I don't know anything about it.. Ron

It also says Rolex on the dial but it isn't.

A quick bit of research will give even the least experienced person the answer. Your watch is a typical counterfeit Daytona.

Kokopelli · 15 January 2012, 03:23 AM

OK.. Thanks... I did a little research, I just didn't come up with an answer.. Ron

bondtoys · 15 January 2012, 05:47 AM

I'll give you a hint

what are these subdials for on a real Daytona?

rr-nyc · 15 January 2012, 06:03 AM

Another inheritance "Rolex". The lucky recipient never knows anything about them

What a surprise, it's fake!

drockadam · 15 January 2012, 06:10 AM

Sorry mate, the Daytona is a fake. Daytona's do not have Day/Date subdials on them.

This is what a real Daytona's Sub dials should look like.

Kokopelli · 15 January 2012, 08:47 AM

Thank you.. I see the differences.. Easy come easy go.. Cheers.. Ron

Omega looks sketchy too... typical Asian fonts on the chrono numbers and date.

Mosco · 15 January 2012, 01:09 PM

The Citizen is real.

Hmmm, not sure about that one either....

The Omega is fake too.

Don't know Citizens...

Always inheritance.

mrbill2mrbill2 · 15 January 2012, 10:52 PM

Another calendar Daytona.

Always inheritance.

Not always,sometimes they are "gifts",usually unwanted,unappreciated or not lifestyle compatible in some way but for some reason always without boxes and paperwork.

You are right. Usually from the ex-wife, and now he wants it gone!

zacharylough · 16 January 2012, 07:10 AM

The "Daytona" on top of the 24H wheel is very of. Its as if the 24H wheel was put on slightly to far to the left making the second half of daytona "tona" be un even with the watch. TAKE A LOOK SEE!

Unless you glued it on that way, I would have to say it is not genuine.

Well, maybe, but great for starters if a Daytona had a "24h" dial.

mrbill2mrbill2 · 16 January 2012, 08:15 AM

What day is it? Tuesday or Wednesday?

Rsvrider · 16 January 2012, 08:17 AM

No calendars on a Daytona, sorry.
