dan_189 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Hey guys, new here Got a few questions: Is this dial genuine Is this crystal genuine, I know the pics are terrible, but from first glance there is a tiny crown mark but its at the very bottom/edge of the crystal and most of the genuine crystals have the crown further up/further away from the edge. Any ideas? Thanks! Edited July 10, 2012 by dan_189 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 The dial looks ok, but I can't 100% sure- seeing the back might help The crystal side profile looks to be gen. Can't see the crown- LEC- oh wait, you're right, it's on the edge. As long as you trust the seller, you're probably ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_189 Posted July 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 My concern about the crystal is that most of them that I have seen have the crown further up/further away fromt the edge of the crystal Here is the back: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Crystal coronet is smaller and further from the edge on genuine. i believe this is a rep crystal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonboy Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Ask for a picture of the crystal without the gasket attached to it, the seller may be hiding an "ungenlike" edge profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_189 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Crystal coronet is smaller and further from the edge on genuine. i believe this is a rep crystal. Exactly my thought, the dial pic and the crystal pics came from the same seller leading me to believe that the dial may not be genuine either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correctime Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Dial looks gen to me. Crystal...hard to say without being mounted on the gen gasket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixen Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 The corronet is placed like that on one of my gen crystals, that i got in a sealed rlx package Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeto72 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 here is the problem guys. there is a large batch of modern rep rolex parts circulating on the market right now. Even the packaging is perfect. There are some ways to tell what is rep and what is not. Even the experts are being fooled by the parts and the packaging.

That's why it's best to buy the seller, not the parts. When in doubt it's best to go with someone you know and trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
