Guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 SOmebody offered this to me and asked if its real or fake. I thought I knew a lot about reps and classified it as real just by feel, looks, sound of rotor, bezel ticks, and sealson the stem and of course nice crown guards but I wanted to open it up....I opened it up and was confused....Now I need your opnions before I offer to buy it. Never seen a real rolex on the inside so thats why I need your help..... heres to hoping its real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 EPZ- I think $50 is being a bit generous, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its_urabus Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 $50 is a bit high do you think? and yes I am being serious... I would not consider this watch... use the search here, and for $100 or so you can get a superior watch... good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadtorrent Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Real...for sure...real cheap!! That movement cracks me up. At least they "tried"to put in the red wheel. The movement isn't even worth the top dollar ($12) of a better quality DG2813. Don't buy it...it's junk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliates88 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Hehe I was a noob, when I buyed a similar watch at my holiday in Italy: 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdavis Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 If you ever open a "Rolex" and see a plastic spacer, you know you're looking at a fake and probably a cheap one. Rolex would never install such a thing in any of their models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbieG Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 If you do buy it, PM me and I'll give you some money for the movement. That one is worthy of my museum. There is a local WIS collector I would love to show that to. Gotta love the Chinese. Almost looks like a 3135 - well not really - but the rotor kind of does - maybe for starters they could make the reversing wheel red instead of pink? Love it...

RobbieG Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Not for nothing, but did you ever consider just typing "Rolex Submariner Movement" into a search engine and finding a picture to compare it to? If you want to learn about Rolex watches and watches in general so you can get good at evaluating all your future replica purchases you kind of have to get good at doing sopme simple research. Just a suggestion to help you in the future. SOmebody offered this to me and asked if its real or fake.

takashi Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 indeed... This is really a very bad rep of Submariner. Wrong bracelet, bad movement (probably ticking at 21600bph), thick CG. Very very bad rep. Don't pay more than 20USD for such a watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dachshund Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 JCMIRO This isn't intended in a negative way, but if you can't tell that rep from a gen, you had better stay with an AD for gens or one of the trusted dealers here for a rep. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
