Seriously? You think Rolex would be so careless with their endlinks? Maybe Google a bit before posting? How much was seller asking?

This is what the forum is all about......Educating and helping others. I've learned a lot here myself, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable members. I'm glad to see threads like this where it kept someone from being ripped off!

Link us to the listing then, let us see it. Because I'm pretty sure he's asking WELL under the asking price of any real Daytona.
I'm quite certain, 1 of 3 things will now happen. 1. you're not going to respond, 2. say you somehow miraculously found this guys details in person and not on the internet (which is practically impossible), or 3. the listing is mysteriously all of the sudden deleted. Will happily take back my comment and apologize if you want to prove me wrong. If not, I will be 5 for 5 in calling people out in the past few weeks without a single proper response. |

Not saying that is the case in this situation but most often it is.

There is nothing authentic about this watch; it is a very common fake.

looks polished, yet, the bezel tachymetre numerals still have no fading! someone needs to tell rolex that someone figured a way to not have them fade.
and its a fake. |

And exactly as I thought, OP has been back on the forums, saw this post, and chose option 1 of refusing to respond. Members should stop replying to these threads.

I find them entertaining, these folks all know they have a fake watch. Also, if there is a problem they always seem to get it resolved (was sold a fake watch but got my money back), yeah right if you have been successfully scammed you do not get your money back, that is the whole point of the scam...

For those of us who are proper newbs, how can you tell so quickly it's a fake from those photos?
I've never owned a Daytona or seen one in person up close, but I've drooled over photos and nothing jumps out at me right way other than the bracelet looks a little off. Also, what incentive do scammers have to ask about fakes? Are they just testing the waters? Please forgive my ignorance. |

For that $100, he should also get a two piece with fries and some cornbread included. At least the combo would be real.
