As some of the replica rolex watches looked just like the genuine rolex watches, we have to be very careful when we are buying the rolex watches. Or we simply get the replica ones so as to avoid fraud
Just kidding!
If you are planning to get a Rolex watch, just search it on internet before you went to the store.
There are millions of replica rolex watches among the market now. You please get to know some basic information about the rolex watches before you buy it.
Here are some steps you might take to identify the replica watches. Hope they would be useful to you.
Take a look at the second hand. Is it ticking or is it sweeping? If it’s ticking, that’s your fake. A Rolex second hand sweeps around in one continuous motion. But beware, as of 2005, the good fakes have caught up to this technology.
Look for the small engraved crown at the 6 o’clock mark on the crystal. Most fakes will have some sort of large, obvious version of a crown, but this mark on a real Rolex is almost impossible to spot with the naked eye.
Look for the word “Rolex” and the watch’s serial number engraved at 6 o’clock under the crystal on the area between the crystal and the dial. While many fake Rolex watches post-2005 have this feature, they’re usually printed, not engraved.
Most new Rolex models have an added model number engraved at the end of the watch end-link. This engraving includes the band model and two tiny Rolex crowns. Your good fakes will have something similar, but not all three indicators.
If you’re being sold an authentic Rolex (in good condition and in perfect working order) for anything less than $500, become suspicious. If it’s in nice shape, it doesn’t really lose a lot of appreciation, and in some cases, it increases in value.
These steps are only for your reference. If you have any other good idea to make us easier to spot the fake watches, please kindly give us a feedback.
