Hi all,

I am really not much at spotting fake rolexes and I would really like some help. My husband has been waiting on a blackface daytona for sometime and I think I may have found one. Before i pursue any further with the seller.. does anyone see anything strange in these pictures?

BuffaloRolex · 8 January 2008, 12:54 PM

Pics look legit, but always buy the seller before the watch! Pictures can come from anywhere.

VESUVIO · 8 January 2008, 01:37 PM

Do you know the seller? If local, ask him/her to meet you at a AD store to inspect the watch. Price?

ROLEXNWB · 8 January 2008, 02:15 PM

I saw the same picture listed with 2 different companies:
topnotch watch and .rolex24h.com. The first company sells on ebay and the 2nd one has a sketchy past, I would suggest staying away from both of them. I also wanted to purchase it, but will wait.

Topnotch Watch is as legit as they come

Yep.

Rolex24h.com, on the other hand, is a Russian site which uses "borrowed" images, lists unbelievably low prices, and accepts only non-traceable and non-recoverable payment methods. Good luck, you'll need it.

Makes you wonder why more legit sellers don't watermark their pics?

I have an active FBI/Internet Crime complaint going against Rolex24h.com.

Topnotch Watch on E-Bay is very legitimate and I am annoyed that someone would post otherwise. I made a statement to that fact a couple of weeks ago when someone asked the same question. I believe if someone's reputation is questionable it should be posted for all to see.

Ont the other hand, if someone is legitimate I would be cautious in writing anything bad about them. Reputations are hard earned and can be tragically trashed in a heartbeat, especially with internet traffic being active today it would be a shame to have someone think badly about Top Notch Watches because someone misspoke.

Thanks for your advice!! After looking a little deeper.. I have seen these same photos twice!! once on ebay by topnotch watch (legit seller I believe) and again on www.rolex24h.com. There is no way that rolex 24h.com is a legit site! Is there any way to report them?

I don't speak Russian, and I would be surprised if the Administrator is unaware that the web-site is offering bogus deals.
