Rolex Masterpiece ?

[mbuckley]

rolex desing----

quite a design.

[Davehuff]

I appreciate the intelligent replies and will ignore
the bad suggestions from the jokesters like the one from sublover
who replied that I should toss it just because case
was marked wrong.
Now that would be foolish for numerous reasons.
Breitling just verified band is real
an 18k masterpiece band in like new condition
is worth what $3000 and just toss it ???
Not to mention that 2 ct diamond bezel
and diamond dial appear to real worth another $4000 if real
or worth more than a used submariner
that hes leaving for his daughter.
I prefer 18k gold Rolexs like President or Masterpiece
over stainless watches
Thanks for the adult replies from others

[breitlings]

I did not verify the band was real. Unfortunately I was suggesting the band is also a terrible fake...

[Davehuff]

Well you are wrong
I guess you didn't see the stamped side of band that I posted

[Davehuff]

Here is photo of stampings on band
It was tested by jeweler as 18k goldwatch 347.jpg

Guy,

Why don't you go back to those jewlers that verified the watch and said it was "authentic" and tell them to write an appraisal on paper with that serial number and post it here to prove all of us wrong... Please! That watch is junk and you are still not wanting to listen to our very knowledgable TRF'ers. Sorry to cut it to you but how many of us is it going to take for you to finally take a hint? Literally EVERYTHING on that watch is wrong... Spend some time online and read up how to spoke a fake and you'll see that the fakes online at least look better than the one your showed us

Not sure if you are just playing a game, if you are it's over and boring. If you truly think it is real, wear it and enjoy it.

I've spent some time rewriting packaging and product instructions that come out of Chinese factories and "desing" is a common translation error. I'm pretty amazed they stamped it into a case.

Well said Jason

Who can prove this is not a real Rolex band.
If you can perhaps you also walk on water ?
Jeweler verified it as 18k
so why would others on forum suggest that its fake ?
No jokers please

[Davehuff]

Your point ?

[SpaceWanderer]

If I was an Elvis impersonator, I'd be all over this jewel like a cyclops on a DateJust.

I could wear it as it looks like a Pearlmaster at $95k
but I don't care for white gold as everybody thinks its silver.
I bought it knowing I could return it if not real
or sell for a profit.
No games here

I did not say that jewelers authenticated watch
I said they authenticated the band. are you that dense ?
Nothing is wrong with the band, bezel or dial.
only mismarks are on the case itself.
There is no way you can say its all fake without lying
aside from the case numbers normally hidden
nobody can look at other pictures and say band, bezel and dial
are fake. not sure why you think you can.

[Davehuff]

When I first saw desing instead of design
that's exactly what I thought
That its was design in foreign language
Thought maybe the guy stamping the 6
had a hangover ?
Rolexes are made by hand supposedly
not machines
Humans make mistakes.
Have you ever tried hand stamping a number
on a metal object ?
Stamp could easily move
but everybody thinks that couldn't happen ?
Fake or not mistakes happen all the time
to normal people
Thanks for your research

"I inherited a Rolex named presidential pearl masterpiece" Change this story much?

Fella, this is getting comical. The guys here are amazing. Some of the guys move these for a living and can tell more in a crappy pic than most jewelers when it comes to Rolex. Why argue here? Bring it to a authorized dealer with a watchmaker ON SITE (not just some saleslady) and have it checked. Believe me,,,if some of the real heavy watch traders here say it is fake..it is fake. And quite honestly...your watch is so terrible it is comical. Now maybe it is possible some ignorant person spent thousands adding stones to a $20 canal street fake. I mean lots of jewelers would take the work. Its money after all. At least the truth is starting to come out...you got it for what you thought was a steal and were gonna score. Now you simply can't wrap your mind around the fact you are holding a $20 watch you paid real money for. If you weren't so obtuse, we would maybe feel badly.

NO NO NO. Mistakes like that do not happen!!! You do not sell a watch costing tens and tens of thousands of dollars with such major mistakes. It would never happen. NEVER. The kind of thing that may get through would be something you could only spot with magnification...and that is still very rare. This is not a $20 Timex. Are you really kidding yourself that this could be a error at the Rolex factory? These are Swiss people. They so anal even their cheap stuff is detailed beyond expectation. Rolex must sell hundreds of thousands of watches a year. There is not some hung over guy with a magnifier stamping numbers in by hand.


This really is entertaining now..


If you really can get your money back do it. The couple hundred you likely gave the guy for it is not a good deal. My guess is you went to some low end jewelry store and some know nothing salesperson looked at the gold stamp and that was it. Here is another hint...the stores do not like to offend anyone. They may have thought it was fake, but did not want to turn you off or offend you. Although likely they just saw the stamp and that was it. That is this part of your story is even true.

[Davehuff]

back you are totally wrong.
If you are going to respond, read the whole story.
I cant feel bad at all because my purchase is covered
and I get every dime back if I return it.
You really have those blinders on and are more fake than the watch CASE

[Davehuff]

back again. You are saying that a swiss person never makes a mistake ??
Now that is totally ridiculous at best.
I bet there mistakes get sold by employees.
I didn't say they sold mistakes for Thousands of dollars

Inherited or purchased? Which is it?

[Davehuff]

back as in any forum, there are people that know
what they are talking about and others that pretend they know.
The ones that know what they are talking about
are usually professional.

[back]

Oh...and then there is the tape ball trick. Make a ball of duct tape sticky side out...clean the back of the watch with alcohol or just soap and water. Then push down hard and twist on the back. Most of the time that will work to get the back unscrewed. If there is a beautiful Rolex movement in there....well try it and find out

[Davehuff]

Old Expat If you read the post, you would see that
I relayed that I originally used the word inherited instead of acquired.
I acquired on Ebay with money back guarantee
I really don't see where that is relevant as I merely asked if anyone had seen markings like that on Rolex

[Old Expat Beast]

You got your answer. The watch is junk. Enough.

And the abusive PM gets you banned.
