I am guessing some folks asking for feedback on fake watches are the ones producing/trying to sell the fakes but wanting to test them out to knowledgeable owners before modifying future productions and trying to pass them off to newbies. That or I have been watching way too much true-crime TV during this holiday break. Some of these are just way too obvious for forum members/silent followers to inquire about.

OP - do you really need to ask? So many tells, but look at the serial number on the rehaut ... the font type, quality and spacing. Geez!

To ALL ... there are no "they don't know what they have" great deals anymore. If you want a legit Rolex, you have to get it from an AD and pay MSRP or find a reputable dealer and pay market value. Period.

You have no business buying, without the assistance of a reputable dealer, if you can’t instantly tell that is fake. It’s absolute trash.

Please do yourself a favour and buy through a trusted seller.

If the paperwork is to be believed, the replacement parts were sourced from the floor sweepings of a fake factory, circa 2006.

Excellent work OP, can't wait to see what you post up next

I'd think it's someone trying to figure out if various fakes they have access to are 'close' to real or not. More likely that than a pure "troll" for trolling sake maybe.

Or a novice who wants a Rolex, searches out cheap ones online, and doesn't have the internal reality check necessary to avoid getting scammed.

The rehaut ring looks horrible but seeing the reference on the paperwork actually made me chuckle.

There are far better replicas out there than this piece of trash. It's likely that OP doesn't know the difference.

41mm current Submariner has 21mm lug width. That is easy to measure.

1. When in doubt, pass
2. If it looks too good to be true (price-wise) it probably is.
3. Buy the seller.
