Fake Smurf
Had a buddy at my sister's wedding showing me his new "blue submariner." He's convinced he has a real Smurf. I've known him forever and have tried nicely to tell him its not a real white gold sub.
Pic for a laugh, my Hulk next to it for comparison. I figure the case is at least a 42 or bigger. |

It is a good copy, but it looks HUGE.

Probably needed to make it in XL in order to make weight.

i see these on the streets of asia all the time and always have a quiet chuckle to myself at how out of proportion and silly they look. Im sure many a tourist has bought one and got home trying to convince the mates and neighbours its real lol!

When I saw it peaking out from under his cuff I was jealous....which was very short lived upon closer inspection.

Is it actually a pelagos? If so, what a waste...
