From what I can see it looks genuine IMO. qwackers 3 September 2007 09:04 AM Fake............ At least 3 things tell me that...........:dummy: roadcarver 3 September 2007 10:19 AM I'm not an expert on Daytonas... Zeravince, did you get this from an AD or used from private sale?

I think there is no different with my daytona (except the colour) Letsgodiving 3 September 2007 11:36 AM The crown guards look like they don't extend out as far as the other pic and are somewhat more rounded but I'm certainly no expert just compaing the pics. cjj14u 3 September 2007 11:39 AM I say it's the real deal.... qwackers 3 September 2007 11:40 AM Hey...dont be having a go.......:thumbsdow When i was looking at them last year...i did a lot af studying of the fakes to be sure i knew what to look out for....those 3 things i mentioned are still ways to spot them......... like i said.....it could be the pics..... SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 12:04 PM Sorry, Qwackers, but if YOU bought an SS Daytona for that kind of money and presented it proudly here, and many then cry out "FAKE", how would you feel?? The pics presented are very clear and nice close-ups. Had we been presented some lousy pics, blurred and from too far away, an "alarm bell" would have rung with me, too. If THIS is a fake, it is the BEST I have seen todate. Anyway, it could be interesting to see its box + papers (and the other accessories). EvEr34 3 September 2007 12:08 PM Gotta agree....nothing about that watch looks fake to me. Congrats on your purchase and enjoy it....i hope we have not ruined your weekend!!!!:smokin: asq69 3 September 2007 12:09 PM Hmm, I think you should go check it as soon as possible. The next question is: what will you do if it is a fake? If it is still under guarantee from the seller (which I believe it is), I think you should take back the watch and ask your money back (97 million IDR phew...) but I don't now whether it is better to tell the seller that it is fake thing he sold or you find other reason, and if it's a fake could you please inform us where did you buy it, the seller (and the store) should be blacklisted and informed to other Rolex fans in Indonesia. If it turns out to be original real Rolex, then...please PM me and we can have cups of coffee to celebrate it :cheers: qwackers 3 September 2007 12:19 PM I agree Spacedweller........ I apologise if it has caused angst to you Zeravince...........wasnt ment to.......:cheers: Youd be surprised at how advanced they are now though... The latest ones are using a 7750 @ 21,600vbh which has been mobified up to a 7750b1 @ 28.800vbh...to cope with the strain on the movment due to the sub dial configuration....... Id still say as i would with any non A.D purchase.....get it authenticated..................... :thumbsup: Il post links if anyone wishes to be shocked at how advanced thay are now and hopfully it will make us all the more aware ................... SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 12:40 PM Better not post links to fake Rolex sites here. There has been much discussion lately about not posting about fakes here at all, and such a link would look like we somehow endorsed fakes. Just my 2 cents. :cheers: daunwaun 3 September 2007 12:49 PM i do not believe it is a fake daunwaun 3 September 2007 12:49 PM and great pics by the way!!! Rawhyde 3 September 2007 12:55 PM That is an absolutely beautiful Daytona. The SS/Black Face is my favorite version!

You seem to know a lot about fakes eh??? But im not going to open a can of worms!!! This watch is REAL!!! zeravince 3 September 2007 12:59 PM big thanks for removing my worries.... I can sleep well tonight. here another pic of my daytona tiny hand daunwaun 3 September 2007 01:00 PM very nice pictures!!! zeravince 3 September 2007 01:01 PM thanks for the welcome....LOVE THIS FORUM VERY MUCH SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 01:04 PM NICE pics, and still looks like the REAL thing to me! :thumbsup: I noticed you have the paper certificate Also there is no "ROLEXROLEX" branding on the chapter ring So this cannot be one of the most recent Daytonas since they would have the CCC (Credit Card Certificate) plus the branding on the chapter ring. What serial is it? I mean: What LETTER is in front of the serial number? But still no worries, on the CONTRARY! You got one WITHOUT that dreaded chapter ring branding, and IMHO the old-style paper certificate is just "charming". :cheers: daunwaun 3 September 2007 01:06 PM lol i like that chapter ring zeravince 3 September 2007 01:11 PM I bought my daytona at 10 September 2006 with a D series. what is the different compare to daytona which have "ROLEXROLEX" and what is CCC? sorry, my knowledge about rolex is very poor and of course with my english , hope you still can understand my post. It's a pleasure for me gaining a knowledge about rolex from all of you qwackers 3 September 2007 01:15 PM Very nice fresh pics Zeravince.................... :thumbsup: Once again appologys ...............:cheers: SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 01:17 PM A D-series is EXPECTED to have: NO "ROLEXROLEX" chapter ring branding NO CCC, but a paper certificate. So all is just FINE :thumbsup: :cheers: BTW: the chapter ring inscription is a brading of the words "ROLEX" alternating with the Rolex Coronet (crown logo) and the serial number engraved at 6 o'clock on the ring. Here is a photo of the the chapter ring branding, however on the new Sub OP COSC (I have no pic of the Daytona with chapter ring inscription "lying around"): zeravince 3 September 2007 01:26 PM thanks a lot for the information, adding more knowledge about rolex, I will update my pic if I got new inspiration, for qwackers : it's ok,but you make my heart down when I read your post...thanks GOD it's real daytona SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 01:40 PM Also, you can see variations of the Daytona. Here is a Daytona, Z-series that has: Chapter ring inscription Green sticker (not the clear case back sticker) Paper certificate This will be an early to mid Z-series since the latest Z-series would have the CLEAR case back sticker + CCC. Still the real thing. http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-Daytona-11...QQcmdZViewItem :cheers: Welshwatchman 3 September 2007 01:48 PM Of course it's genuine. If ever the fakes looked EXACTLY that good we are all in trouble (well, most of us). padi56 3 September 2007 02:10 PM Quote: Originally Posted by qwackers (Post 293331) I agree Spacedweller........

First the Valjoux 7750 has always been a 28800 BPH movement since its introduction in 1974.Second the Valjoux 7750 movement will not work with the seconds sub dial configuration at the 6 O'Clock position ,only at the 9 Oclock position.Genuine Rolex chronographs with the cal 4130 will have the working sub seconds at the 6 O'Clock position.And the watch is fine and looks genuine to me. Ironstark 3 September 2007 02:19 PM From what I can see in your pictures, it looks good to me too :thumbsup: It looks just like mine :agree: Have to aggree with Padi56 with regard to the 7750 particulars also. Enjoy your watch and welcome to the TRF. qwackers 3 September 2007 03:09 PM Yes Padi56.....you are correct........ :thumbsup: My post should have said..............(Quoted from a Folex site)............ (Japanese constructed replication of the ETA (Valjoux) 7750b1 caliber 25 jewel movement running @ 28,800vbh)......... Sorry for my error..... ANYWAY.....Im glad its the real thing..........:cheers: LouCan 3 September 2007 03:46 PM I don't understand what all the apologies are for. He came on here and asked if it was fake. People on here telling you its real shouldn't put your mind at ease, it would make me go out and have it checked out from an AD or Rolex themselves. Its easy to spot a bad or cheap fake. But now they are making such good ones its scary. No one on this site can truly tell you its REAL. When you have to ask the question "Is it Real?" you already have a problem . Have it looked at by someone who really knows and will open up the back and check the movement.

Here he is posting pics of his new pride and joy only to be shot down. By the way, he never asked about authenticating his watch - he was TESTING a photo upload. Great watch zeravince - I guess some sensitivity going on with a not too recent poster showing off his fake daytona. Here is a shot of mine to compare :agree: I know I haven't posted anymore new pics but as i sit here on my 'white porcelain throne' (sorry too much info) it was much easier to grab from photobucket than my camera. Once again - great watch!! (unbiased view:chuckle:) :cheers: SPACE-DWELLER 3 September 2007 06:09 PM Exactly, JJS, that was what I was saying earlier. Anyway, as in this case, I am happy when I can say what I see and tell the member that I see a genuine Rolex. On the other hand, I am also happy to say if I see a FAKE Rolex. Either way, I state my opinion. EvEr34 3 September 2007 06:11 PM i'm sure our last culprit had to do with the responses he received. I think we need to be more careful. I mean this weekend must of been a long one for him with all these doubts. I can just imagine that sinking feeling. If you are not sure about the authenticity of someones rollie it might be good idea to hold back and let more experienced collectors take it up with the owner. Hell, could also private message one the in house experts if you have doubts. Some are pretty obvious but this one did not deserve the scrutiny it recieved. Just a tought. Destroy 3 September 2007 06:13 PM Has anyone tweaked that maybe, just MAYBE - said poster is extracting information on what the general rolex wearing public believes constitutes a "fake". And with that information will go and and modify their production line accordingly? Think about about it.

You notice that he doesn't tell you why he thinks it is a fake. I've owned at least one Daytona, and have looked at many, and I can't see anything that tells me yours is a fake. Plus, Spacedweller is very knowledgeable and seems to agree. If you are greatly concerned, go to a Rolex dealer, and have them check the movement to make certain yours is authentic. I remember now why I overpay for my Rolexes at authorized dealers. Much easier to sleep at night!

I know that store and they surely bring only the genuine Rolex (new and pre-owned). So, I guess no worries there, it must be a genuine one. Anyway, to make sure you can always bring it to RSC to have further check, Zeravince. I mean you've spent so much on the watch and a double check surely gives you peace of mind. :cheers: To Bo: Bo, do you remember when I sold my first Sub?

freddy333 Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 I only made it part way through (not enough patience to read the entire thread with all the duplications), but I thought it was similar to the countless threads I have read on TZ when someone purchases a new watch & then asks the $64k question: 'Is my watch fake?' The responses always run along the lines in this thread. Bottom line, for me, is the poster that said the only way to know for sure is to have it appraised by Rolex or a Rolex-trained watchmaker. Short of that, the watch looks totally legit to me & I doubt the owner has anything to worry about (other than tempting fate by posting these types of questions onto a public board).

gioarmani Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 There's a member posting in that little bit of drama above named "daunwaun". I'd bet hard money it's the same assclown from here: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=16579&hl= http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=15935&hl= http://www.replicacollector.com/members/in...showtopic=27227 Feel free to call him out on it--that's probably the only place he hasn't been banned from yet. I'm surprised the asylum still allows him access to a computer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
