I think I would've been confused had I noticed imperfections that I could've sworn weren't there before.
Also, I've heard of these more expensive replicas. They're generally a couple grand and supposedly take the copying to the next level. As opposed to the street stuff one might find for a hundred bucks.
Sorry to hear OP! Glad they found the kid!

Indeed it was tragic. I did not wear it everyday as I would rotate between a few others. Some of these copies are very expensive and they even fooled AD's in the past (according to an investigator in Orange that handled a similar case with the OWNER of a Rolex AD)The worst part is waiting for the Sheriff Department to act.
