HELP please. Real or Fake Rolex Ladies Watch?
I know very little about watches and even less about Rolexes. Is there any chance in you know what that this is real? The only mark on it is a hallmark on the clasp 'AK'. If it is not real, can you please share with me what style/model/etc it is modeled after? Thanks, R

In the 80s, there were many boutique assembled cocktail watches. A lot of times, cases and bracelets were built around Rolex dialed movements. The only way to tell for sure is to pop off the case back and see whats written inside on the movement and the inside of the case back. I have my suspicions since most of the time, the case back should be gold to match the rest of the watch. The construction does not look to be of the quality that you see in these boutique watches of the time.
Check for hallmarks and gold content. That AK on the clasp may be a boutique makers mark.

This 100% fake. You would never have this style adjustable clasp on a karat gold band.

The bracelet doesn't seem to be a solid gold bracelet in terms of the movement and case you really should take it into Rolex or at least to a Rolex dealer to verify it depending on the asking price I personally would not buy this type of Watch but then again to each their own
