Anchors - fake or real?

Looking to buy some Rolex anchors for the fun of it.

Do any of the following look fake or real to you?

First 3 pictures show a Seadweller anchor. Next picture shows a Sub anchor. Next 2 pictures show a different Sub anchor. The last picture at the bottom shows a Tudor anchor.

Thanks!

Thanks! Had a look at that website already. Great article. Not sure I am any wiser though as there seem to be other versions out there as well, dependent on year

Boy never looked into how to spot those in fakes, i would assume it wouldnt be hard, they are easy to replicate

Agreed

However, havent found any at $10. Cheapest I have found thus far is around $40 shipped + potential customs handling and VAT, as I live in Europe.

They must have increased in popularity, maybe I should raise the price on mine?
