Yes, its incredibly easy to be stamping ROLEX on the inside on a genuine rolex movement. Its hard to copy this though:

I hope you are not trying to pass these images off as your own.

The top is a 3185 GMT movement and the bottom a 3135 standard chronometer....

The GMT you have looks somewhat old, I would guess a U serial? maybe older.

Personally, having owned three Rolex I find they aren't that great, and their finish work is rather poor.
 
whats worse? Pab lieing or him being dumb enough to forget his lie?



heh it will funny if Pab is actually telling the truth. Nobody will beleive him at all

Take a high-res picture of the back of the watch.

Takes more than that to spot a fake....

Yes but most have fake backs. Just want to see the back since he claims he can not take the watch apart now....
 
Man, I love PAB's threads, they always make me laugh. 🙂


Since I want to add more cents to my post, I'll add that I don't wear a watch at all. I find them a little tacky, and the bands, particularly the metal link bands, get stuck on my arm hair when ever the watch shifts position slightly. If I want to know the time, I just check my cell phone. Its typically more accurate than most watches as well.

Nice Realex there PAB. How come the case is all scuffed up? Did you drag it behind your Neon all the way back to your parent's house?

Its pre owned.

Well DUH you're going to see a difference. This isnt a submariner, its a GMT.

That's funny. It clearly states 'Oyster Perpetual Date' on the face, yet looks nothing like that model on the official site.

Uhmm...😕 My thoughts exactly. Even the GMT...you're missing the stem with the "crown" at the very least...

Damn. I am. http://pics.apartment808.com/users/dukeofurl/IMG_7396.JPG

I give up. I can't tell if this is a real Rolex or not from the pics posted. If it's a fake, it's a darned good one.

Fake confirmed.

they should create a fusetalk feature that tracks PAB's lie-per-post ratio.

seriously, PAB, what did your parents DO to you? you're the most fvcked-up person i've ever encountered.
