Why would you buy a fake? Just to flex? That’s really shallow. I didn’t know as much about watches and I thought maybe a fake would be alright. They look just as beautiful. But the craftsmanship isn’t there and it’s not special so why in the hell would you spend the money? I’d rather just buy a durable timex. But for the craftsmanship and value of a Real Rolex I would spend the money if I could

Because a really convincing fake from China will cost you around 500 bucks while The real thing will cost you several Grand. If you want a Rolex Daytona for example it would set you back 30 grand or more. While obviously everyone would prefer to have the real thing, a 500 dollar convincing replica is the next best option.You buy a Rolex not just as an investment but as a status symbol and Nobody at the bar or the club or at your office is going to know the difference between the replica and the real thing. To anyone else your 500 dollar watch is 30 grand. If you like the style and you want something flashy but don't have the money, a clone is your only option.

Top tip: look at the balance and escapement in the movement. Even the best clones still use a standard swiss lever escapement. In the case of a Rolex, look for weights on the balance wheel and the lack of regulator level on the balance. In Omega's case, the co-axial movements will also have weight on the wheel itself and lack a regulator lever, but also look for a second escapement wheel and a pallet fork with 3 prongs instead of two. This is the only way to be absolutely sure the watch is real, particularly if you do not have a genuine model to directly compare. All of the other tips, while all true, will be very difficult to ascertain on a high end enough replica, and will ultimately lead to an informed guess, rather than a definitive answer. If the seller won't let you inspect the movement on a used or grey market watch, that is already a massive red flag.

I have replica Daytona Ice Blue.. Still works perfectly fine, I have had it for a couple of years now and I have no regrets buying it. When people ask me if it’s real. I’m honest about it and say it’s a replica, end of the day .. It’s a watch .. most important thing about a watch is the time. As long as the time works accurately and you like the design which for me was the Daytona Ice Blue and like how it looks on your wrist, I personally think that’s all that truly matters. I just wouldn’t ever recommend misleading people believing it’s real for the sake of the “successful status” I got it because I like how it looks, As much as I would obviously prefer the real deal I rather spend that kind money on a car or holiday/vacation. P.s Just my honest opinion.

If it takes that much effort to tell the difference between a 500 and a 7000+ watch, I'll opt for the fake. In particular if the fake is easily obtainable and you dont have to beg the Rolex A.D. The grey market is everything but reliable, recent antics with several "KZbin grey market dealers" shows that some of the the used timepieces are sold as real, but are fake.

Well buy the fake for hundreds of pounds and when you are tired of it you will find you have lost nearly all the money as they are literally worthless, so in the end more expensive than a real watch. And you can get a vintage watch with GREAT quality for what a good copy of a Rolex cost. Not a vintage Rolex but maybe even an Omega of equivalent quality, and that watch will probably just increase in value… I am pretty sure that 99% of everyone that buy a fake Rolex will end of getting disappointed one way or another.

@@truxton1000 I dont buy the watches for the value. I buy them because I like them. Technically the Rolex is not necessarily better, as all the parts except the adjust are interchangeable. Let me be clear, I would buy the original .... if they would let me. I'm not going to be treated like shit again by a Rolex AD and I'm not going to gamble going grey market, that is flooded by fakes. FYI, currently globally 4 in 5 Rolexes are fake. So yes a fake it'll be and no one is able to tell. By the way a Rolex 5 year service will cost you more than a super clone, which I'll happily service myself. So if you are in it for the money, this is way more cost effective. With the current decline you probably find that you are lucky if you even get 70% of the purchase price after 5 years. So I dare to say that buying a clone lower end tier Rolex will be more profitable.

Then my idea was to buy a gen and the same one as a rep (in case I get robbed). Now I have the money for both. But over all this time I lost the need to own a Rolex :-/ I'm watching your videos and hope there will be the real thing, that looks and feels great and it's not a Rolex.

Cancel any and all entertainment subscriptions you have, because you should be using anytime not working or sleeping to hustle some side gigs, or exercise. Also, ditch the Seiko plan, and just buy a ten dollar Casio F91-W. Then, take all that money you saved, and diversify a few investments, focusing on the SP 500 and high yield CDs... ...Then, after you have gloriously maximized your ROI on the money you earned, go out with a friend, to the cheapest restaurant you can possibly find, during an early bird special, and watch them fall asleep while you talk about how smart you are with money, and then realize you literally have nothing else to talk about because you don't do anything fun ;)

i was tempted to buy a fake, most people can't tell and no one is likely to ask for your watch to inspect. if you have enough money to buy genuine then who would think your watch was fake? but the thing is i would, i would fking know! so i bought mine from watchfinder so i could as much as possible, be sure it was genuine. i'd tried for years to buy from an AD but man they're a nightmare, i'll never even try and buy from an rolex AD, i just don' thave the patience. so i'm then stuck buying second hand and that's a nightmare of very good fakes which i think i could likely spot now but i would never be 100% totally sure i'd spotted correctly so for me best to buy from somewhere like watchfinder

Great video. I really do not get fakes. That said, a sadly no longer with us friend of mine, gave me a superfake Montblanc. I have tasked myself with trying to find a genuine watch any tips? I do not know the model it has three buttons an internal bezel adgusted from a winder on the top left. Black face with three smaller dials.the date is one of these dials I have tried to find an archive site or back catalogue. No luck so far.

It does, the price you pay for an expensive watch is in the details, specially the movement but also everything else. Anyone that has actually used a fake watch as a daily watch for a year or two can confirm that they often deteriorate considerably, despite what they look like brand new.

@@cy9nvs I agree 100%, there are many reasons for not getting these fakes, the reasons you mention is not to be ignored. Personally the biggest reasons for me is that I feel disappointment when I look at any fake watch, plus the economic loss that comes with it at the very good fakes will cost a lot of money and you will never get even close to what you paid back when you sell. There are literally millions of second watches for sale in the region of $200-1000, many VERY attractive in terms of both quality and appearance, why on earth pay that kind of money for something which is fake??

Also, if you are going to only sell watches to the grey market to falsely inflate perceived values, then you deserve every super clone that is bought after the terrible customer service provided.

I think it's hilarious we still think it's worth spending 10k on a watch that can be copied so well you need to go to macro to see a difference. I've owned a Rolex and have multiple Tudor's and Omega's so still buy into the BS, and sucked in by the ad's, but I think we're being bummed up the rear. There's a great vid on YT with Georges Kern telling you exactly how he does it at some shareholders meeting. Look, see that tiny screw on the pallet fork, there should be 3, Zzzzzzz. If someone made a Porsche 911 for 10K that looked the same, drove the same, smelt the same, felt the same, but a couple of pipes around the engine were routed differently, Id buy it. We're all being hypnotised in to believing the real one's worth 20 x more. NO!

This comparison with Porsche is so incredible because its true. I was with couple of my friends few days ago on poker night and 3 of them had rolexes and one had tudor and omega. All of them are genuine. I am the poorest one from the squad but not that poor that i coudlnt afford a sub if i really wanted to. I was wearing a 100usd submariner replica but bit the worst one. They coudlnt say it was a fake or anything. Incredible, i can just imagine how higher end replicas would look even better.

It sounds like you need a real Rolex to compare to the alleged "fake" watch in order to tell the difference. But he also says most times that you "may" have a fake. And heaven forbid that the watch that you think is real that you are using to compare to the one you think is fake turns out to be fake. The whole thing sounds like a fools errand and maybe just buy the $300 fake and Bob's your uncle.
