Replica DSSD is already out!

I will not post a link to it but the replicating bastards have caught up with the DSSD... I bet as soon as Basel revealed the design, those punks went to work....

I don't understand why Rolex can't shut these sites down as soon as they find out about them. It's total B.S.

It cant possibly be accurate can it?
Dont they need to rip apart an actual watch to make the exact shape and whatnot?

It costs more money in getting attorny fees than they will get out. Most of these are mobile operations, changing their names from day to day. Also, it is not hurting ROLEX's customer base because a ROLEX customer or wanna be customer will not suddenly shift to a replica... Either you are ROLEX material or you are not. If you are, then you will only buy ROLEX and if you are not then you are the replica person.

But still, it is definitely copy right infringment, that's for sure ... but these replicas are made in countries where there is no respect for human life, so to expect them to value a watch or copyrights is laughable ....

The replica people can post their names and addresses on the web with their social security numbers and ROLEX can't touch them ....that's the way the law works in those 3rd world countries....

I hear that as soon as law enforcement shuts down one operation another starts up. Also, the watches they confiscate are such a small number to the ones that are still out on the market.

Post some Pics PLEASE! I think the real DSSD looks pretty weird to begin with- I am still not used to the mass and overall over-the-top size of the leviathan. Would love to see replica pics to rip apart.
