gliptopolis Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I tried but I got this instead: "Your prior actions have resulted in you being permanently banned from this forum." I've never posted anything with that bunch of [censored]. Wonder why they banned me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I looked at Yuki's, and NDT's, no tail on the m and J&W's- I couldn't tell by the bad pic. My MBW's don't have it either, but they have issues w/ the "Submariner" being too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I doubt that someone would be crazy enough to post a rep on a genuine forum, at least not knowingly. How many franken and replica Rolex subs get by the watchful eyes of the Rolex Forum "Watch out" guys? Folks buy these watches, many with pretty good paperwork, firmly convinced that they are buying a genuine Rolex.It woulld be interesting to know just where this watch came from. personally, I would bet someone took a genuine 1680, stuck a fake dial on it and sold it for a bunch of money. If it was a Red Sub to start with , they probably sold the dial seperately as well.If the watch is indeed genuine, the owner can replace the dial and for another 1-1.5k have a real Red Sub!!

lanikai Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Well, all gen forum members are not angels either.. they usually sell questionable items on ebay, whist selling the unquestioning items on the gen forums.. I'm not talking about dials.. but parts such as tension rings.. personally I never had the desire outside of my Doxa's (on the Orange forum) to post pics of any of my gens on TZ.. I can't find a purpose.. I know of a member here who owns a very sought after genuine vintage Rolex.. but never posted it anywhere.. he has shared pics with a few of us.. and that was much appreciated..no doubt members on TZ would raved about the watch.... respect to that member and I understand his low key approach and humbleness in his passion for watches.. Like some art collectors it is for his joy and fulfillment to own it.. but I digress.. some give counterfeiting a bad name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Looks like it could be a gen with a fake dial. Am I right? The watch is a franken. Everything, with the exception of the movement, is new/aftermarket. It never ceases to amaze me how many people post pics of reps/frankens on gen forums thinking no one will notice.
