Tutorial - how to spot a fake rolex by "pawn stars"

[fotoman]

You whats funny is that today when you wear a real one,everybody asks if it is a fake !LOL!

This is why I always say, it's not the quality of the piece as much as it's the attitude of the owner. Some people ask, well, I don't want to be embarrassed. While i generally freely talk about mine as a rep. When I'm with people i don't know, I won't say its gen or not. But no one ever asks me, because I'm nonchalant. Most people I know who can afford 20,30,50k watches will blow it off or say it's a fake when it's really gen.

Most times like Dave123 says the originals have harder time to pass as gens.

Steel day dates were nit that rare ,maybe in the US market but in Europe they sold several.

I always thought them to be entry level versions,my uncle also has one,i thought it was white gold but truned out to be steel,

Its a quite old version,didnt have the time to look at the serials to check for refs but he remebers receiving it sometime in the 70's as corporate gift.

Maybe they choose there market according to what will sell were.

Gold watches dint sell that much as steel in Europe

Anyway in any version i dont like this watch much to begin with.It lacks the looks and sharpness of the old 62xx big crowns and the 5513 !

I am not sure these people know if they open a movement if they can tell,they might though.

Does your uncle SS DD have an engraved serial number? Can you help verified? Based on the readings on the web it should have no serial and I do not know if that is true.
