  • Fake Daytona?

    This was brought out in the Panerai subforum and so not sure if other rolex lovers saw it. The fake looks pretty solid, any expert can comment on tell-tale signs? It's an F series.

    From the angle the picture is taken...it's hard to do any evaluation. But from holding the watch it's usually not hard =)

      The Rolex logo and the flip lock look weird.

        Look like a real thing to me... but holding it should be easy to differentiate. The fake ones is has a thicker case

            You are right! That is the main difference! I didn't know about it initially

              Can share what you saw inside when you opened it up at your friend's pre-own shop?

              Man, this is scary. The watch looks totally genuine on the outside.

                Rolex rotor got sound one? I tht its quite silent?

                Only ETA and other movements have those noisy whizzing rotor turning sound when you move your hand right?
                I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch.........

                  Any rotor can make noises when they are moving.

                  The difference is just how the watchmaker keep the noise in the case. Rolex are pretty silent.

                  It is incorrect to say that ETA movements are noisy.

                  The fake one made some rotating noise when I move it. That should be quite an obvious giveaway in future if I see another one.

                    The movement do not have ROLEX engraving. There is no red wheel as well.

                    I am not even sure that it is ETA. It might be just some china movement.

                      the rolex logo on the bracelet is too far up. the bottom of the logo should be lower.

                          reference to this picture 1

                          reference to this picture 2

                          if you look @ the real one, u can tell the logo is too far up.

                          also with reference to picture 2, the hole is solid thru, aka see the base, but real one does not.
