slay Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 On CSI New York Episode 5 of Season 3 (the most recenst CSI NY) they showed a REPLICA Rolex straight into the camera (they didnt say it was a rep, they tried to pass it as a gen lol). It was one of the kind with those cheap daydate subdials which had way too big circles. Really funny, because its SO obvious that that watch is a replica!

Canuck88 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 It's called props - why would they ever use a real one?? 99.9% of the people watching wouldn't freeze frame and thus wouldn't notice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slay Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 because maybe rolex might be interested in some product placement? and maybe because some GAF punk would immediately notice and sue CBS? plus do you think that the transporters Panerai is a rep, too? whats next, actors wearing fake lacoste shirts and fake ray ban glasses?? I'm going to post this on timezone, too LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finepics Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Jeez Slay - you have eyes like a [censored] hawk!! Can spot a piece of [censored] from a half a mile away (as my old Sergeant Major used to say!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slay Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 you try watching CSI in HR-HD on a 20inch screen from 5 inches distance, you'd spot a rat shitting on the curb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devedander Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Haha... I actually saw that but it didn't click with me it was rep... and I have the benefit of watching on an 85 inch HD screen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slay Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I watched in on my iMac. I would probably not have noticed on an 85 inc screen either, because if I had been watchin it on an 85 inch screen, I would have sat 10meters away!

slay Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 F'in hilarious.

AMK000 Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 A clear "evidence" of a replica "crime". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 every since I saw that fake daytona, I'm not sure that any of the watches shown are real in this movie! Oh I hear ya man. However that Warrick Brown always has the 16610 on, think it's his personal watch in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OiRogers Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I don't watch TV much but I think I may have heard about this episode... is that the same watch the guy held up to his ear and said "its genuine, no ticking"? Either way turn off your TV and read a book or go for a run... TV is poison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hottoddy Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Similar to the cheapie they used in Kill Bill. I think the prop guys prefer using knock-offs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OiRogers Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I'm curious how they source these "Prop" watches without incurring the wrath of GAF?... is there some sort of authorized supplier of "prop" watches? And @ dutchy... my personal opinion... everyone has em. TV just seems like such a waste of time in general. And the people I see everyday that can barely walk from their car to the counter at a fast-food joint disgust me. I understand that some have medical conditions that result in broken down and morbidly obese bodies... but lifestyle choices, such as excess TV time, crappy diet, no exercise, etc are killers. I stand by my statement... TV is poison. Not trying to hijack this at all. I'll let it rest here... but I am curious if there is some GAF attorney acceptable source for Prop watches?

fotoman Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 next time customs seizes your watch, tell them your an independant film maker and you have seized my prop, deliver it immediatly or you will have the MPAA aftaer them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I certainly wouldn't want to alter that opinion!! I absolutely agree that there are certain TV shows and certain people that indeed have no idea of how to take care of themselves. Interesting post. In my opinion, TV is educational, yes, there are idiotic shows which may be a laugh for some, but I believe there's a lot to be learned from TV, to each his own Now back on the topic, I believe that TV shows which rake in millions of viewers could and should shell out a couple hundred bucks to rent some highend watches if they are to be used during the show.

Everythingape Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 because maybe rolex might be interested in some product placement? If I owned Rolex I am not too sure I would want my trademark showing up on too many dead, mutilated and bloated bodies.. It's strange how the human mind works, so it might dissuade someone from buying my overpriced watches sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
