Sprintz25 Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Hey Everyone, Received a Datejust yesterday for my Mum (from a trusted site dealer), opened it up and found the caseback engraved with the dreaded 'Gelena Shitinerand' and numerous other strange ramblings. The watch actually looks quite nice and has an ETA 2671 and also wasnt cheap. Just wondering if the fact that the watch contains the famous phrase "Shitinerand" means that the watch is a $3 rep or is this common among the ladies rolex reps? Is this a bad sign?

KB Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well the first thing that comes to mind here is.............don't open it up and no one know's From memory these were in fact good cases that may (or may not) have been made outside China and the changing of the stamps was so there would be no custom problems when going to point of asembly. Then of course I could be wrong Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Carl Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 A couple of my favorite Rolex reps have been revealed to be from Gelena. Not a problem for me! Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
