How to tell if a 7835 band is gen?

[gplracer]

How does one tell if a 7835 band is gen or not. What are some things to look for? Also, how much of a difference is there between a gen and rep band?

[Guest avitt]

I can't speak for others, but I've never seen a good replica of the 7835. (I wish there was one )

As Avitt mentioned, I have yet to see a fake 7835 or 7836.

Not a 7835, but a rep 7836 does exist.

This was listed in the bay some time ago, and quite a number of people actually got fooled. I was nearly one of them.

Ditto Avitt & Stilty.

Depending on which end links they have (the end links are 'permanently' attached), 1 end of the bracelet will have 7835/19 pressed into the last link before the end link
