Which one, I bought one recently for about $300 that's damn good but there's flaws. The rotating mechanism is a tad sloppy. White indents around the bezel aren't quite deep enough.. screw in wonder isn't machined perfectly, it's a little grindy when you wind it in or out.

It's not far off a 1:1 copy. I'd pay for a better match IF it also came with the forged paperwork and serial stamps etc because backing up the watch with paperwork in a draw if challenged is key to making it work in my head.

The one I have now, green submariner.. if I had a real one, I'd wear the fake day to day it's that close to stop from wrecking the real one.

I'm sure you'd get away fine with it, unless someone really scrutinized it (checking the minor details/ taking off the case back), but IMO i wouldn't by a fake, becuase every time id look at it id know its not really a Rolex. eventually id put it away. do yourself a favor and buy a vintage omega or JLC if you cant justify spending that much on a Rolex.

It’s extremely obvious to anyone who knows about watches. Do you know why? Because your family doesn’t have money, you probably drive an econobox, you don’t live in a nice house, you’re probably a student or recent graduate. 3 options
1. It’s a fake
2. You stole it
3. It’s real, but costs more than your dogshit car and you rent, making you retarded.

Rolex Hype has quite litarally been the most stable part of the entire watch industry over almost 70 years at this point, continues to be, and is basically what kept it all from disappearing entirely in the 2000s and 2010s but okay, I guess a garbage quartz is more reliable.
>no one will suspect a thing
People who don't even know what a Rolex is won't suspect a thing because they won't care and won't even notice you're wearing a watch, or they will and will call you a retard because you should "just look at your phone lol".

Very good point. I assume it would be a gimmick. Like a modern sprezzatura, an ironic mustache of a bracelet.

It's like a getting mickeymouse watch to your 5 grand suite. Similar value I would say.

This is the one I picked up, they actually fucked up and shipped it twice so I've got two. Doesn't seem to be any deviation between the two so I'd imagine they're fairly strict with manufacturing. It's damn good but.. I know there's a better version and I think OP might have a link for that version.

$161 USD plus shipping.

Like I mentioned, I'd prefer a closer copy that comes with the box and documents and I know that exists somewhere.

If you wear a flashy fake gold watch I'd think you're a psycho.
If you're so inclined to find a perfect replica, I wouldn't know unless you told me. Maybe it's a frankenstein, those are cool.
There are near mythical handmade rolex replicas that are better than then the real thing so...don't be too quick to judge.

Well, I guess so.
My point was that acussing someone of contributing to chinese mafias because you buy fake watches from China it's total bullshit because one way or another all of us do.

You'll only impress dumb strangers, anyone who knows you or can judge the your persona/style/overall composition will realize/assume that it's fake and immediately draw negative connotations about your character. If you're going for sleazecore then sure, a fake rolex (preferably a shitty one) is virtually part of the uniform.

In any case, you'll know its fake, intelligent people will deduce that it's fake, and overall you'll have cheated yourself & lowered your reputation.

I wouldn't advise poor people to scrape together what they can to afford a rolex either, because then you're even worse off as people will STILL assume it's fake even though its legit. You may still enjoy it yourself, but if you bought it at least in part to show off -you've shot yourself in the foot.

If what you're looking for is a stainless steel sports watch then they probably thought you were mentally impaired going in there asking for one. Buy a ladied gold datejust, some jewelry and an ugly tag, then ask if you can be put on the waitlist for a sub or whatever the fuck you want. MAYBE you'll get one next year.

Imo it’s for good actually. Here people might see you as a psycho for paying brand price, they might get mad at you and so on. If they think it’s fake they stay chill, but you can enjoy yourself being so well off.

Whenever I think of buying a replica I imagine myself making sure people know it’s replica, as if I was kinda apologizing for being so cheap.

This is true as long as we are speaking about a Rolex, which literally everyone can recognize.

OP, everybody has shopped for a rolex at least once and seen how expensive they are.
All your friends will know its fake. and they will ask you "is that a rolex"? and you will have to say "yea it is" and lie right in their face. and they'll know the truth and lose respect for you.

>> No.15713298

everybody will know its fake because everybody automatically assumes a rolex is fake until they find out it's not. by seeing the guy's lambo or house. you have neither so everybody will just assume it's fake and laugh behind your back.

Well OP
It depends.

Buying a fake Rolex is a contradiction. It defeats its own purpose. You see the value of a Rolex is that a Rolex is more than a watch. It’s a Rolex. A watch, you can buy it and everybody can buy It for 10 bucks. But a Rolex No. with a Rolex you are sending a message : I can own a Rolex. The price of the Rolex is one of its appeal.

So if your buying a Rolex so you can have 99% of a Rolex. You are in the wrong. You’re just owning maybe a nice watch that is a fake Rolex. You are better of with a Normal watch.

If you’re buying a perfect replica to make everyone mad, to send the message that you can own a Rolex even If you can’t, then that is the right move. But you’re a hack then. You are as fake as the Rolex. But hey why would I care.

It really depends what you want from the watch:

If you are buying a watch just to try to impress people, then you might as well. That's bearing in mind if they think you wouldn't be able to afford it or they spot the fake then you've done the opposite of impressing them. Should work on niggers and teenagers though. In my opinion regardless of whether you're buying a fake or real Rolex to impress people you're an idiot poser.

However, the right reason to buy a Rolex or any other expensive watch should be because you appreciate the precision engineering and quality that goes into it. You're buying a watch that you can pass down the generations, a watch that will actually gain value if properly looked after. Imagine inheriting a watch from your grandfather and getting it appraised only to find out it's fake.

> Just buy a steinhart

Thread could have ended after this first post.

The right reason to buy a replica is if you want a specific luxury watch model which does not have a high-quality homage and appreciate the engineering of a complicated mechanical movement. If you buy a replica to pass it off as a Rolex for social status reasons, you're basically a nigger.

A really good fake still costs a good amount of money, like maybe $500-1000 for that Daytona. Just because it's fake, doesn't mean that the processes used to make a convincing fake are easy.

I've been to markets in Luohu and Shenzen. There are obvious fakes that go for $10, but if you want the really convincing shit it's in the hundreds. And that's when you buy it direct from the chinaman. Buy it from some inbred in Turkey and you're paying more.

So anyways, you drop $1000 a convincing fake that all the while will last one year and will be IMPOSSIBLE to service. So you'll end up paying $1000 to be able to fool a bunch of retards for 1 year. Meanwhile, you could have just bought a real Daytona for $13k held onto it for a few years and sold it for $15k. Netting yourself a profit and some self-respect.

At one hand I do understand the point of pursuing the real thing. At another, it seems like posters who say like "how embarassing it would be to answer the questions about the watch" havent been talking to real people in a good while. Look around, dupes are normalised up to the point people may not even pay attention to them. Nobody may ask if those are Lolex because they know the exact booth in local department store that has them. It would only look weird if anon belongs to some different social circle that knows and cares about things like that, and anon considering to buy a rep somehow tells me they don't. Chances are people won't pay attention at all.

you can buy good original watches for 600 bucks. the people you want to impress with it will be able to tell that you couldn't afford one even if they can't tell the watch apart from a real one.
