To set this clear, I dont want a new bag, I did wear it and noticed some heavy wear usage only after 4-5 times of wearing it. I did find this suspicious. And then I started to research and checked how good this rep actually is and saw these big flaws and was [censored]. I knew then already I cant get a replacement. I cant send a bag back that has wear usage. But I really only used it 4-5 times. So I threw my little research in a folder and the bag in a corner. And did some more important things. Until now I found time to do this posting.

You dont have to tell me, that a rep is not like a gen. But this bag is to me something I get from a random shop or even from the beach and I excepted more like a noobmariner for this price. I relied on the good reputation and maybe pay a little bit more. 

And NO I did no research on the bag before, why? If there is one seller that has a good reputation to pick the best goods why should I?! 

I know the rep game right, that is the reason I dont speak out the name of the seller here. And I made this posting to have a better understanding of the lv daniel bag, if you want to buy it and get QC pictures. You know what to look for. That is the point of this posting. 

And yes I`ll get the GEN LV Bag the next days.

I did wear it 4-5 times since Ive got it. Ive noticed some heavy wear usages especially at the inner side where the bad too big printed Logo is:

I mean the pictures tell the story, the first two pictures, that has nothing to do with wear usage. On the Fake it goes down and on the gen its splited. The LV Printing on the side. That is not on the replica but on the gen one.

If its GM or MM that does not bother me at all. But there are some easy spotting flaws like the lv logo on the side. But maybe I`m expecting too much... There are fakes out there, that have fixed these flaws.

HI everyone,

I prepared this little "review" months ago, made pictures, did the research and so on. But than had a lot of personal things to do like a new job and new flat that were more important than a fake bag.

I ordered a LV Daniel GM Bag from a seller here(and one other item with problems also). I dont speak out his name(and let him read this und contact me first). Some time passed on and I`m not so angry anymore, because is he has a very good reputation here and I`m really [censored].

I ordered a LV Daniel GM but I`ve got the Daniel MM (thats the smaller one). You can read the sizing at the official LV homepage. That is not a big problem for me, the smallest problem even.

But it`s a bad fake for a high price. Everyone who has just a little clue will spot it. I pinpoint just the big flaws and mistakes, there are so many. Lets start the pictures:

Gen

A picture from another fake, But a much better one and cheaper one! And its more at the Gen side than this RWG Seller`s one.

700$ for a gen vintage rolex! Nice deal

But why can you start a thread and not answering my PM??   

Just kidding 

all the best to you :-)

I take it! [censored] I`m too late...

I think Puffy is well known, its look good for me. But dont trust me alone. There are other real experts here.

ohh silix seems to have a nicer comex with lugholes and a better dail :-)

Its really hard to see. I dont see it with my naked eye. But with a marco shot I`m able to spot it and get it. The replica crown is too easy to see.

Here is a picture of my gen 16610

thanks for youre advice, the seller seems good. But he could told me about the little cracks at the pearl.

I have some more pics of the crown. What kind of pictures do I have to make to verify the crystal?

what do you think, are these parts gen? I can only tell about the bezel that seems gen.

So I got the parts today. The pearl has a little "crack" in it. At reallife its hard to detect, you need a lupe or a macro photo shot or even look very close.

I get the parts tomorrow and will post some pics. And I wait for TC to response to my mail.

what do you think about the 16800 with the saphire crystal? Do you think this one would sometimes come the the vintage world?

@sishac thanks very much for youre advice

I did know that about all original and vintage. But thanks for the information. What do you think why would the 5513 or 1680 be the best investment over some 16600/16610/14060(M) models ?

dont forget my mail TC ;-)

hello everyone,

my girlfriend (yes the same one who started the comex hype here ;-) ) is looking for a rolex sports model Submariner/Seadweller at the price range of 5500$ to 6500$. She is looking for a capital invest and a nice watch to wear.(not a daily rocker, but sometimes) I know what these forums are about, but the experts here are awesome and know more about (gen) rolex than everyone else.

We were looking at the models 14060(M), 16800, 16600, 16610, 5513. Now we want to know, what do you guys think is the best option for the capital investment? I thought the vintage models 16800, 5513 could be very interesting for the capital investment. But on the other side, the 16600 has a nice value today.

greetings

arkon

looking forward to see more :-)

Yes, but we want to have everything just as good as possible :-) If you wanna trade youre insert with mine, pm me :-)

I own a gen 16610 V Series. I could destroy the insert, add it to my gen. And send it to Rolex to get a new one? :-)

Ohhhh no wait, better. I just swap the insert out of my gen one and say I lost it, would that work?

Or I just sell it and buy the newer one.

@Eiderdaus why do you think the insert is for the 16800 ?
