Think I was almost scamned
Met with a guy off Craigslist who sells watches and he brought this Daytona and was asking 17000. He did have boxes and card but didn't look right to me so I passed until we could meet at a jeweler

That bezel looks fake to me so I would say the watch is fake also.

Your gut feeling is on point...first off the bezel numbers are off...either aftermarket or replica ceramic insert...the text on the dial is not crisp and bright as well...also the hands look off ..especially around the CP area..sub dial at nine not zero out...I call replica...Not 100%...sure.. but enough to bet there's a crappy Asian movement powering it....a couple more pics would be nice...but pretty sure it's a fake...be careful my friend...there are fakes that has 7750 movements in them that allows the chrono function to mimic Rolex...but the hands don't move like genuine Rolex movement..good luck..but be sure a AD rights off on it!

You can add multiple gears to redirect the running sec at 9 of the 7750 to the subdial at 6 or 12. I've seen it before. Had one of these on the bench. |
