The serving was 5/6 years ago now. Why the hostility? Is that not what this section of the forum is for? Some kindness and understanding while I’m upset about the authenticity of this watch would be much appreciated.

Also, a blind person could tell what you posted is a fake so there's no way a competent watchmaker would claim it was legit. |

Nobody takes a photo concealing the date with a bezel misaligned unless it’s on purpose.

Nobody in their right mind would take one photo at that angle and post it. The watch in a best case scenario should be thrown in a dumpster fire. It’s not remotely close to good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I was getting increasingly frustrated trying to post a photo that met the constraints of the forum uploads. I ended up taking a photo from high above and cropping it. Obviously a very poor idea, due to frustration. One of the other people on the forum was kind enough to add the other photo, after I sent it to them. |

This watch is fake- there are so many tells it's incredible. We doubt your story because you INSIST it's real when it clearly is not based in the ONE photo someone posted for you... all of this is nonsense.

OP, since you insist it’s REAL. Who did you buy it from and also do you have B&P?

I’ll say again, you did not have that thing serviced (and cleaned as you say) by a Rolex dealer or anyone else. Fakes of that standard are non serviceable and watchmakers would not work on them...so your story stinks, sorry. We have heard it all before in here.

It's still running after 10 years? My BS detector is going haywire. Those things barely run long enough for the guy who hawked it to you to disappear into the crowd.

Which dealer did you purchase this from ? How long ago ? Box and papers, any warranty ? The watch is fake but the dealer could have known... share with us the story. |

Not a troll. I'm been looking at possibilities to figure out which one it is. My friend took me there when I was visiting Vancouver and I'm not that familiar with Van.
I do appreciate that this one is not real. Like I said previously, I am wondering if a former roommate pulled a fast one on me. I feel very foolish for not noticing. It was tucked away and I only pulled it out when I was considering selling it. |

If this is true, you need to report this to the cops, there will be DNA evidence from the scoundrel all over the watch, on the dirt inside the links or endlinks for example.
