Just to be sure my new gift (Sub C) is 100%
I just got this as a gift and I have checked everything that I could possibly check to make sure it is 100% real. So far looks to be great but just wanted a few more "trained" eyes to confirm and get this knot out of my stomach. Thanks in advance. Pic was taken from Iphone

The magnification and pearl don't look right to me but I can't be sure, check them against some pictures of real ones on here.

I hope I'm wrong but I think you knew it was fake from the beginning... Like I said I hope I'm wrong,
I say that because after 3 people tell you your $8,000 "gift" is fake you laugh it off....

Not laughing at all it was from my fiance but she got it from the wholesaler that I bought the diamond ring from. She is a family friend so I can't imagine that she would dupe me or my family and it came with papers and the box but again it wasnt from rolex directly so I am looking for insight from people that have owned Rolex for a long time. She did pay what they cost just no tax so I want to be 100% that she did not get ripped off. I know I can do the authenticity check with Rolex but I would rather not have to go through the trouble. I don't think the first pic posted did any justice hopefully the second was better.

When you set the watch turning the crown clockwise, do the hands turn cw or counter clockwise ?

Try put more pictures online. The back of the watch and the clasp could be of interest.
What are the S/N and the code on the clasp ? |

Ok I see the difference there - the one having more rounded zeros, and therefore the gap between the "m" and previous "0" being smaller.
However I just checked a few pics of various subs on the forum here and some pics are with the thinner zeros. I think that's also a lesson for me in among all this -I should stick to AD and trusted sellers ! |
