watcher Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I don't often do this but this watch just does not look right to me. It looks like a noob factiory or early WM9 'F' serial fake. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PRE-OWN-ROLEX-OYSTER-PERPETUAL-YACHTMASTER-16622-F-/180505992475?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Wristwatches&hash=item2a06fedd1b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cyclops might be too far right. but it's too hard to tell with the angle of his shots since there is no direct shot of the dial. The biggest tell is probably the "yacht-master" on the dial should be a much darker red.... I'm no expert though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaifender Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 anyone else gonna chime in??...... I'm pretty sure this is a replica.. and if it is indeed a replica he should be shut down!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member X Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Did the WM9s all have the same serial number? Although it's good for us to have individual serial numbers, it's also good for those passing them off as gens... (if this is the case here).

ubiquitous Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Back in the day, the WM9's were essentially the same thing as the TW Best reps. Quite a lot has changed since then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oh yeah that's definitely fake. Absolutely no doubt about it. Rep dial No rehaut thickness Noob YM is actually better than this one... not to mention WM9 which would actually be pretty difficult to spot from the pictures. This one in the auction isn't a bad rep though... I believe it's a TW model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
