Would someone mind telling me if this watch is real or fake? I’m no expert but after enlarging the photos a few things appears to be off, especially the engraving of the word Rolex. Some have big gaps and some seem crunched together. I’m uncertain if the the serial # placement is correct or not. Thanks for any help.

Lemieux66 · 28 March 2018, 07:37 AM

Endlinks look too big to me. Might be the camera angle though.

Paul_I · 28 March 2018, 07:39 AM

The spacing on the rehaut definitely is not consistent, and the crown doesn't look as nicely finished as you'd expect to see. I don't claim to be an expert though.

Lemonvr6 · 28 March 2018, 07:39 AM

it's fake. 100%.

Paul_I · 28 March 2018, 07:41 AM

Lume pip doesn't look like it's perfectly centered either. I'd pass.

Hamstur · 28 March 2018, 07:41 AM

That pip is jacked up and some crazy white bezel fill

mistermann · 28 March 2018, 07:41 AM

Very fake. Look at the pip lol.

Chadridv · 28 March 2018, 07:41 AM

that's not looking good at all!

Paul_I · 28 March 2018, 07:42 AM

Now it looks like the numbers on the bezel are crooked as well. Look at the spacing on the bottom of the "2" and "0" in the 20. You should pass on this.

A few things I don't like.

Rolex85 · 28 March 2018, 07:43 AM

is that a LEC at 6 that I see? definitely should not be that easy to see it especially in the second picture. if the LEC is visible easily then run!

Paul_I · 28 March 2018, 07:44 AM

I think we all agree you should not buy this.

christopheran · 28 March 2018, 07:44 AM

Fake

dmash · 28 March 2018, 07:44 AM

Faaaaaake

Please report this wherever you found it. This makes me sick to think some unknowing spouse, family member, whoever, could buy this as it’s not a super horrendous replica.

thomaswentworth · 28 March 2018, 07:47 AM

The inner box material is the very first of a number of bad signs that jump out at me. Take a pass on this watch. It is illegal to traffic in items bearing counterfeit trademarks.

The Libertine · 28 March 2018, 07:52 AM

Real garbage, is how I would describe that watch.

abozz · 28 March 2018, 07:52 AM

Fake! Is not platinum color is white.

rickytz7111 · 28 March 2018, 07:57 AM

Thank you for the quick replys

Londonboy · 28 March 2018, 07:57 AM

Where is this listed for sale?

rickytz7111 · 28 March 2018, 07:59 AM

It was on Craig’s list. The price seemed to go to be true. They said that a pawn shop offered them $3000 for it and would take offers over $3000 for it.

Onikage · 28 March 2018, 08:00 AM

I was going to bed but I had to see this. Damn, what a steaming pile. Don't go near, it probably smells.

Find something you like in the for sale section from a trusted seller. You can still find a good deal, and you'll end up with a genuine Rolex.

Yup. And definitely avoid Craig’s list.

thats awesome!!!! and very accurate!! lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OP the watch advertised is a pile of crap!

And i seriously doubt any pawn shop offered him anything other than a "please take your counterfeit pile of crap out of the store" comment

With the advance of the internet im sure most pawn shops well and truly do their checks to make sure
1- they dont get ripped off
2- they dont get caught selling illegal goods(counterfeit)

seller is a scammer plain and simple
