You know what I can’t be bothered anymore. I really don’t know why I waste my time. You and 95% of this forum have absolutely no idea what your talking about. Time after time, genuine watches called out as fakes. You point out it is in fact genuine and the mob mentality sets and and you get slaughtered for it. I won’t be posting anymore. Far too many armchair experts who think they know everything but know nothing. |

Thats a pity - you offer a lot to these forums - in this case I don't agree with you, but I respect your opinions. You give up to easily and just because others don't agree your conclusion does not make them "arm chair generals" Stick Around Adam

Everybody is questioning the verdict but not explaining why, and the one person who is explaining is getting flamed; some people taking the piss.
Hope Antrolexsub keeps posting, because I for one, have learnt a tremendous amount in a short time. And for somebody with eyes, you can certainly tell the features described. haters gonna hate. |

Nothing to do with "hate" just different opinions based on lousy photo. If you are learning - great - enjoy!

He only pointed out details that can be found on a real GMT , if the pictures were better and I could see what he sees (it is bloody blurry !!) I am not a "arm chair generals" everyone posting blurry or/and low resolution pictures should not expect anyone to go and vouch to the authenticity... this is insane to go ask someone for their opinion for you to spend over 10K and you cannot even give proper pictures. |

id even question if the two wrists are the same person, let alone the same watch.... and even if that watch is "perfect or not".... always buy the person especially online, so if you don't know them as legit and they are not an AD .... walk away

All this back and forth and meantime OP has yet to return.
One post and gone. It amazes me how nowadays, with cell phones taking some incredible shots that rival better quality cameras, folks can still manage to look for answers with the most horrible of photographs.

TRF is a magnet for new scammers to try out their recently purchase rep watch. It’s not worth the time to do any verification. And those who give them a virtual tutorial are only feeding them IMHO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Off topic..@123Blueface..
I keep meaning to say, I think that is one of the nicest Rolex I have ever seen. It has become my new grail. Can I see a bigger picture? It's a wg day date with Romans (right?), what's the dial colour called? That's a real stunner, well done, I love it! |

Not sure why people waste their time with Troll OP's like this- posts 11 days ago- one post- many mentions of bad pics- no updates and a ton of trash talking between the people that are on here all of the time. seems a bit petty and and ANYONE who is making a judgement for against is just looking like a fool based on these pictures. I have had enough of this forum as well.

I’ve said it before: these one-time OPs who ask if their watch is authentic are all up to no good. They are taking advantage of us for their benefit.
Let’s think about ‘why’ would they do that? Think like a crook and you’ll figure it out. That may be too harsh. But...it explains a lot. |

I’m concerned that t is counter productive to detail all of the tells a particular fake watch may have.
Suffice it to leave it to the good opinion of those in the business to warn us away, if their opinion is not appreciated, the buyer can purchase at their own peril. The fact that we can poll a plentiful resource of knowledgeable members here is good enough for me, I don’t need to be the expert... buy the seller is one of the leading ways to insure a good purchase. Ps especially concerned about offering details to posts from someone with a post count of 1.

Understood regarding the concerns. Though with advanced knowledge what the OP could do to increase 'saleability' is unknown - His pictures are already crap.
