Good tips to know when buying not from an AD

This Forum has been awesome and extremely helpful with all sorts of tips and advice and this time I felt like I found something that might be worth sharing with the group!

Came across this cool video on YouTube that goes through some tips to keep in mind when purchasing a Rolex from anywhere other than an AD and figured if anybody is interested them they should give this video a watch!

Came across this cool video on YouTube that goes through some tips and tricks on spotting a fake Rolex. Most of you may already know all of these but in case there are some that don't, I highly recommend it. The "Super Fakes" are getting so good out there that us watch lovers need to be extra safe and cautious out there.

Figured if anybody is interested in some tips and tricks that might help them they should give this video a watch!

The sentiment is still the same, I’m wasn’t trying to lie or anything. It’s something I found helpful but wasn’t aware that posts about fakes were not allowed, even though the post isn’t directly a conversation about fakes, rather, tips on how to prevent people from getting fooled. I’m sorry if that bothers you as I never intended for it to be that way.

It’s actually a buddy of mines! I think he brings up some great points that’s helpful for everyone to know (but also just trying to help spread some awareness at the same time!)

You were already told that we don’t discuss fakes here, you will not be told again. Post it once more and you will be banned.
