Rolex GMT 116710 Authentic VS Replica!

[feudallordcult]

good thread. i was in jb some days ago when i saw a shop in holiday inn selling replicas. as i was w/o my dweller, i decided to see what they had to offer. according to the shopkeeper, the SD and subbie are the easiest models to duplicate. He then showed me a rm2000 replica, i can only say that it's pretty close to the real thing! damn it, he even opened the caseback to show me the movement, it's got some rolex inscription or some crap, i'm NOT kidding! it's scary.

was in shenzhen for business trip. their replicas CMI, was looking at daytona, the chrono is for show, will not move one, and the buttons are to adjust the dates

actually, most fakes come from CN. even malaysia ones i think. a very good fake with full working parts sets you back by just couple hundreds..for S$400, you can get an extremely well built copy. A fine example is the Chanel ceramic watches. The copy watches are ALSO made of ceramic with full working chrono.. to the layman.. you will not tell the difference...

Fakes are for those who can't own the real, and you can affort many, but they are worthless and may get you into trouble.

Real are for those who can affort, and you may only just own 1 of it, but the value of it grows and you wear it with pride.

din know replica also comes with box too. they really make the effort to clone the real watch. there is a article recently that this pawn shop took in a fake rolex and paid 4K for that fellow.

the box i see on aussie ebay before, looks ugly like hell! wouldnt touch it with a 10ft pole.

most are just ETA (maybe chinese) mov'ts with the rolex inscription.

ebay is having legal problem and has to pay damage to LV millions of dollars for allowing fake LV goods auction at its website.

Soon, others may follow that.... Free incomes

My wife heard from a customer, that a lady was fine for owning a fake LV hand bag while shopping for a real one at LV, Taka..., it is a very painful lesson to learn for owning a fake...

I wonder what will happen to the person that sending a fake Rolex for verification at SRC? Any one got/heard this experience?

[Oceanklassik]

Nt heard of but how did this happen in Spore, I mean wif the "LV @taka thingy"? I dun think Spore law has so far enforced tis on consumers yet. And logically, how can a person be penalised for verifying a fake watch, when he/she is thre to verify it

that would suck majorly, being fined for owning a fake, you could argue that one bought the fake to try out and now want to own the real macoy.

Re:..China Man

It is stunning to know that despite the fact that many many fakes are produce in China, the China man (rich/poor/rude/educated) are clearing the shelves of branded produce in Europe. They themself are also aftrid of getting fake and would rather pay a bit more to get the real stuff. How irony.

[seiko.citizen]

that is true, it is usually the europeans who are buying up big on counterfeit merchandise, while china is the producer, it is the buyers who are actually outside of china

[tomcatf]

So far all my verifications done at SRC were positive, "Heng Ah!"
Just worry what will happen if... better keep my fingers X
May be I should ask Henry at SRC, see what he got to share...
