Rep 114060 or bad pics?
How do these look?
Appears as tho at the right angle you can see the LEC, but not unless you hit it just right. Owner told me that the insert is replaced with aftermarket while he sources a replacement genuine Rolex part online, he told me that he dropped the watch which chipped the ceramic and the crystal (there is a small nick). Reps are getting better and better these days, so I'm curious to know everyone heres thoughts. The SEL fit looks on par with other gen examples I've seen photos of. Before you all say it, I know you need more pics, I'll try to get some. |

It looks wrong to me. The big easy tell I look for first is the pinion. The 3135 fires not have a hole at the end of the pinion.

Have him remove the caseback. You can always authenticate it by the movement.

Yeah, I've heard of stuff like that. "Franken watches", reps made with a lot of gen parts. |

Again (not to you but in general), can you elaborate?
I’m trying to learn what to look out for. I assume this one is a little tricky considering this thread has several pics only 3 replies whereas the other thread with the 116600 has plenty of replies off of just one photo. |

Yes indeed Larry,
It does not look the same as my 114060. I see two other issues with the dial. And of course the owner had to disclosed the fake bezel.

I agree. It seems, at least on the other big forum, those who engage in fakes often post “is it real” threads to get the experts to tell them what “tells” are present. This allows them to further tweak the fakes and better fool the buying public. Giving feedback enables them to continue the practice. I’m not accusing the OP, just making a general statement. In my opinion, if one needs to ask they should pass on the watch. |
