Another Mall Rolex

I'm not interested in buying this one but there are a few things that came up as a red flag. Especially the date window not actually magnifying the date.
What do you guys think. This is the best photo I could take.

CNDguy · 1 January 2019, 12:39 AM

Ugh I don’t like the look of it but I’m really not qualified to say

Macnavara · 1 January 2019, 12:39 AM

The man selling it claims its cerified...much be real

Joking aside looks wrong to me

tyler1980 · 1 January 2019, 12:47 AM

was it a kiosk? Like where they sell all the discount sunglasses and next to where all those people try to hand you free samples of soap?

Try it on, and think about it over a nice lunch at the food court.

Rashid.bk · 1 January 2019, 01:28 AM

Fake.

I'd say it was safe to say it is certified pre-owned.
...but, certified Rolex?

m j b · 1 January 2019, 01:49 AM

It looks beat all to crap even if it is real, and I have a bias against anyone that labels something "certified" like that. To me that's an indication that the seller thinks I'm an idiot before he's even had a chance to meet me and certify that observation.

Amex4711 · 1 January 2019, 01:50 AM

That is not a good Deal

ltmgeller · 1 January 2019, 01:57 AM

Who certified it? Looks like a possible frankenwatch scenario.

mirror · 1 January 2019, 02:44 AM

Looks like a faux to me.

andyxxx · 1 January 2019, 02:53 AM

This is why I probably won’t buy a secondhand watch again – I can’t tell the difference from that photo.

Obviously if I had a genuine same model side by side, I may have a chance – but even then, apparently some of them are getting visually very close.

Seibei · 1 January 2019, 03:30 AM

Bad fake.

LuminousMaximus · 1 January 2019, 03:47 AM

This is the "right-lug-is fatter" Model... It may go for a premium.

Chadridv · 1 January 2019, 03:48 AM

real or not, I just don't care for it.

uhren917 · 1 January 2019, 03:57 AM

asking price?

214270Explorer · 1 January 2019, 04:02 AM

I think no one can judge just by those photos; that's what I think.

So the watch will look that much better in person? Get real.

JimSnyder · 1 January 2019, 05:26 AM

The surrounds on the dial are not yellow gold

Okeedokee.

It’s a horrible attempt at a fake.

mangoseed · 1 January 2019, 05:35 AM

If it is real it is has been beaten and polished to sh*t with a non Rolex replacement crystal. "Certified" by whom?

A.I. · 1 January 2019, 05:42 AM

Minger..

That looks horrendously spiffed up. Thanks for sharing.

The fit of the end links between lugs is sloppy, so much so, you can see the spring bar. The cyclops magnification is off. Based on these two pics I would say fake.

What's a Mall Rolex?

If that's an example, then we have a sub-forum for that...it's called "Watch Out."

Don't buy it. Looks fake!!
