maulermacall@hotmail.com Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 Hi A regular and established poster on TZUK has posted pics of her new white gold submariner which is now being questioned over its authenticity, what do the experts here think? Points that have been raised: - The indices look too thick - The cyclops magnification seems odd - The pearl position looks misaligned on its triangle - First minute marker on the bezel seems too close to the pearl triangle
Whatever123 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 I'm not an expert... but this DOES look like a rep to me!
www_watch Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 but this DOES look like a rep to me! + 1 And I would have said the green one as well. I wouldn't even wonder if that "Vicky" was a man.
freddy333 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 And I would have said the green one as well. I wouldn't even wonder if that "Vicky" was a man. Ditto.
JoeyB Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 £20,000 = $32,869 for a Submariner? I need to become an AD.
FxrAndy Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 + 1 And I would have said the green one as well. I wouldn't even wonder if that "Vicky" was a man. Ditto. I think you got it right "was a man"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read this bit
praetor Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 wow yea... the lume application looks terrible and so is the pearl. Funny how the green one looks like a noobmariner. Don't you think the owner would've realized very quickly that the white gold sub should be heavier than a stainless steel one? I wonder who's trying to take who as a chump?
By-Tor Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 Funny how the green one looks like a noobmariner. +1 Wouldn't be the first Noobmariner on the gen forums.
ExtraExtra Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 You would think that Rolex QC would get the obvious flaw on the pearl....so I would have the say that definitely a rep....only the QC in the pearl room next to the dust and wool QC would pass this one.
Dave123 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 Even Stevie can clearly see that is a rep Rolex on a rep woman....
danielv2000 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 Forget the blue sub. This woman tattoos genitals for a living???
bones Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 I'd say both are replicas to be honest. The single biggest tell is the area at the base of the hour hand. It's always so much larger in circumference than gen handsets it seems. Plus of course all the other little tells that they have.
blix Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 (edited) Ceramic blue is definitely fake. Just look at the hour hand base - it's about twice as big as it should be. http://www.blowers-jewellers.co.uk/116619LB_S12541.htm what are the chances, huh. Just in case you hadn't spotted it: the hour hand is not visible in the sales pictures. Edited August 4, 2011 by blix
highoeyazmuhudee Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Funny how the green one looks like a noobmariner. MY INITIAL THOUGHT EXACTLY! im late to the party
lhooq Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Forget the blue sub. This woman tattoos genitals for a living??? It's a growing industry, but you have to deal with a lot of pr1cks.
danielv2000 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 It's a growing industry, but you have to deal with a lot of pr1cks. Funny! Great way for me to start my Thursday!
z80 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Yeah, they both look like reps. I don't see AR on the cyclops of the blue one, the pearl sucks, the lume markers look wrong and the hour hand looks too thick. "She" could never have been duped into buying a rep at gen prices as the gen white gold would weigh a ton.
sneed12 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 No need to look at anything other than the hour hand. It's a rep.
jcagara08 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 the LUGS alone in the blue sub defines it as a REP
daniel8888 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 1 glimpse at the pearl or the hour markers is enaugh... Rep all the way
Ray T Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 way too fake, looks nothing like the gen i have. and who in the world pays full retail on a gold rolex.
FxrAndy Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 well the truth is out , if anyone could be bothered to read all 44 pages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The OP addmitted it was a rep!
www_watch Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 The OP addmitted it was a rep! Too bad... it's for registered users only now. I wonder how "she" managed to talk her way out of it.
chronoluvvv Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 Too bad... it's for registered users only now. I wonder how "she" managed to talk her way out of it. pretty easy if you're a champ @ drawing on people's balls
