wrong place to purchase authentic watches my friend...

[bliss88]

agree with LQY. not worth the trouble. high risk of buying a fake.

[jasonxxl2000]

lots of fakes one you will get

[chesterchong]

definintely the wrong place to buy an authentic watch. you can just take a short flight to HK though to buy..

[ac_wong75]

You should go HK rather then Guang Zhou to buy... there are too many fakes. most of the high quality fakes have almost 90% of the external features of the real ones. The only way you can tell the differnce easily is to open the case back and see for yourself what is inside.... That said, even in HK make sure you deal with reputable second hand dealers to ensure you are getting the real deal.

Not the right place to buy real watch bro !! Too many grade A fakes ones .

[htngwilliam]

Better don't take the risk. I ever go with my friend to look at the top grade fake Rolex, cannot even tell the difference. Maybe we are inexperience...

Big shops selling rolex ok but very ex due china tax highly on luxurious items.
For fakes.. everywhere also sell. Not adviseable to wear fakes bro. A g shock is better.

I will not advise you to buy Rolex in China, beacuse Chinese is coming here to buy Rolex.
Due to the authenticity and Tax rebate here. Also Only the Rich Chinese will Rolex and usually the blink blink type.

[65wang]

To spot a fake Rolex, you need a magnifying glass (portable type will do).
look at the print on the dial, look at the serial number on the bracelet, clasp
remove the bracelet and look at the serial number on the/in between the Lug.
If the watch comes with chapter ring, look it also (serial number)!
remove case back look at the movement.
In HK, some shop will swap the real movement parts for OEM parts.
This is especially on the crown and stem.
last, if you do not know what I've written above, please do not try to buy pre-own rolex in oversea as you
can't go back and get a refund, here in Singapore you are protected by the CASE. Ya

[watchtan79]

Yes. Better buy in Singapore. After so many story. Be safe than sorry
