Just a suggestion, but why don't you try to take a better picture?

Don't think the last photo is better than the first.

We'll be happy to identify it, but we'll need a decent pic.

And is it still a fake after you put em on?

Reason why people are suggesting it is a fake is ... even with those bad pictures it has fake written all over it, do not take this the wrong way.

I believe the camera point out it´s a fake. All Nikons don´t focus on fakes.

It's real alright, a real bad picture. Try with something other than what appears to be a camera phone and we'll see what we can do.

Looks like it might be a fake. At the bottom, that fuzzy gold color looks like a hole in the dial so you can see the movement, like a fake tourbillon or something. Rolex does not make watches like this...sorry.....

Here is your answer: It is absolutely not a Rolex!

I hope this puts it to rest for you.

fpu4eva, the photos are not clear at all. We won't be able to help unless you can provide a clearer photo.

If you can't do that, ask someone else that can.

If you can't do that still, better ask your cousin where he/she got the watch and find out the paperwork.

If you can't find that info, bring it to RSC in Beverly Hills.

I don't see much point in this thread continuing unless fpu4eva posts a pic that is clear enough for identification. If no such pic is posted within 12 hours, I'm closing this thread.

Honestly, do we really need a better picture? I mean, the internet has enough fake Rolex pics as it is.
