No the industry is now huge, So you must be very sure of your seller.

Firstly, please understand I do not wear, not even for 10 minutes these fakes, nor do I test them.

Secondly and MORE IMPORTANTLY
Fakes can ONLY give the "appearance" of the genuine article. their movements are way inferior, the case is a different material (in Rolex case) and for example the hands not made of gold.

Fakes are junk, but with the appearance of a genuine article. No more, and a lot less.
