rehaut and crown guards are the biggest giveaway on any fake sub- period. the cheap ETA or chinese movements are no match for the depth of the caliber 3135- so to compensate, they always have either a thick plastic gasket under the crystal and a thin rehaut or a similar to genuine sized plastic gasket but then with a cone shaped rehaut to give the illusion of depth! next, the crown guards- they are never right. but, alot of these folks who collect and mod thier fakes will mill/shave the crown gaurds to almost 1:1, meaning using the crown guard method to spot the fake sub can be tricky- but the rehaut and crystal gasket is a sure giveaway 100% of the time with a fake sub/dweller..
