Thank you for your reply.
I know the image quality is not the best so, can that be a reason for you to say that? cause i watched some videos online, how to spot the real vs fake one, when i check myself (granted i have no experience in this at all) , it seems to have features and characteristics of the real one.
Or there a particular reason you know it's fake?

Thank you for reply guys.
Now i know the image quality is not great, can that be a reason that you think that?
cause when i checked videos online, comparison real to fake ones, when i compare myself (granted i have no experience in this whatsoever), this one seems to have all the characteristics of the real one.
Or is there other particular reason that you know for sure it's a fake?
Thanks again.

Did the seller win the 1992 24hr Daytona? If not, it is highly likely its fake

Well aside from the fact that these are sold on Ebay all the time, it looks nothing like a real watch

As been said to you multiple times the watch is total junk. Do it a favor and smash it to bits with a hammer. Let it die a dignified death.

And no, you won't get responses as to why it's fake. A simple Google search will show you it looks nothing like the genuine article. Enough said.

Google search brought me here. Thank you for response. I never asked why, i just wanted to make sure that it's not because of the image quality. You don't have to be rude and unwelcoming.

If you only knew how many of these types of posts appear in this section. It is quite often (not always) posted as a test to see if a fake can fool experienced eyes, hence the troll references and the terse answers. Your post fit the pattern perfectly, except that you didn't say that the watch was your grandfathers, friends, etc.

You don't have to own a Rolex to enjoy this forum but, trying to buy a 'Rolex' under market value and asking here to verify the watch (plural) is real does not bode well for you ;)

Someone must have made a zillion of those Losing Winners, as many as we hear about here and at "the other forum".

No, it is not the photography.

There is no question; the watch is fake.

Thought fakes weren’t supposed to be discussed on here. The OP has been told it’s fake (which it clearly is) and as such it should be left there.

Mods - time to close this one down!

I feel like Daytona’s are one of the easiest to spot for fakes, and this one isn’t the exception
