jackxv6 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Is this a good knock-off ? The 116520 on the back went off after a few weeks buts in runs amazing. All the marks inside and outsie. What's your opinion ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Some new and better pictures, come on guys and girls, give me your honest opinion. Looks to me like a Daytona. As far as I can tell, there's not that much variety in the seconds-at-six models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackxv6 Posted February 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 I bought it at a guy his house for €400, the watch was opened for inspection an it has a 31J Swiss in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Seen for my self i'll try to open it and make pictures of it soon I'm not doubting that the text is printed on the inside, but remember the dial also says Rolex on it, and you know that's not true. The Swiss movement, if it is indeed Swiss, will be a 27j ETA 7750 with transfer gears to move the seconds from 9 to 6. It's most likely not a Swiss movement, however.

Watchmeister Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Not for $400. And if it does say 31j somewhere on the movement, as Pug says, it definitely isn't. Now a real Rolex... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfreeman420 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 This sounds like a great guy who is willing to buy lots of great watches from our dealers here and sell them direct to you at a 100% markup. At least you can see it before you buy it. But if you shop here you will save lots of money and probably get the same watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 This guy claims eta only Great guy, that let you buy a genuine very special 31 jewles ETA-powered Daytona for only 400 Euros...
