      I have a real rolex and honestly... people assume its fake anyway and for the average person fake and real both are pretty similar and people just assume ur poor and cant afford one..
      I once had to show my friends that my watch is actually real and they couldnt believe i'd spend such amount of money on a watch.. yet they blame me for wearing a fake one LMAO
      I mean I have 5 fake rolexs and 2 real ones and the fake ones are just for casually wearting it without being scared someone is going to rob ur expensive watch etc..

    I have ZERO experience with Rolex, however I inherited many watches when my father passed away. Included in the collection are three Rolex watches. I took them to a jewelry store where I have my personal watches serviced. They said the "Oyster Perpetual" was fake but the other two are real vintage Rolex's. Also the two Omega's I got are also real. My dad wasn't sure about the Oyster when I spoke to him about it while he was alive. My sister's ex-husband gave it to him. No surprise that it was a fake. Much like that dude is

    Just another obvious tell tell for this specific model 114200, the band should not have brushed outer links with polished center links. The entire band should be brushed & the crown is laser engraved into the oyster clasp. The band & clasp on this replica is more of that of a datejust model. A quick google search & paying attention to detail as shown in this video makes a world of difference & could save you from getting ripped off for possibly thousands. Great video 👍🏻👍🏻

    @b.santos8804 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'm torn on the fake Rolex I have. On the one hand, it is most obviously a fake. Mine is a replica of an Oyster Perpetual, with the blue face and stainless steel bracelet. I know it's a fake because it was my Dad's, and he was a man who would balk at any watch more than $100.
    On the other hand, it was my dad's, and after he passed, I found it in a drawer in his bedroom. He clearly hadn't worn it in some time, but I knew he wore it, given the scratches and other general signs of being an everyday watch for some time. I put it on (I didn't even see that it was a [fake] Rolex at the time, I believe it is the smallish 36mm face) and it fit my wrist perfectly.
    So - I wear it to remember my dear old dad by. And I smile knowing that he would smirk at me knowing his "Brolex" is fake as hell, but actually looks decent and keeps fairly good time. Not bad for a (probably) Chinese watch that likely cost him about $65.

      Well, soon four years have passed and by now the design and detail accuracy plus build quality of the best fakes have raised to unexpected heights. And so has the price of the high-end fakes.
      For the unwary this video now may be even misleading as a high quality fake is nowadays extremely problematic to reveal even by a professional watch dealer or watchmaker without a loupe and a real reference by side of the suspected fake.

    did Rolex ever put anything on the outside of back plate. my neighbor has a OP datejust that's from the 70's or 80s
    and watching you vids I am thinking is not real. the calendar numbers look thin, the date is not magnified, there are
    no numbers, just jeweled diamonds clockwise and the backside. 36mm brushed outer bands w/ 3 gold thin bands in the mid.
    says Rolex of Geneva. swiss made with 16-78678 stamped on it

    • @itscomplicatedwatches
      @itscomplicatedwatches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I mean if the date is not magnified that's a big deal. Rolex has been known to make some errors there but I haven't heard of zero magnification. I know the ladies models from the past had some engraving on the back of the case but from what you're telling me your neighbor's watch is likely fake.

      @UmarAli-zc8xs 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Take a magnifying glass and look at the markings on the dial, if you notice any imperfections then it's fake. See if the magnifier(cyclops) above the date window is 2.5 times magnification, fake watches generally have 1.5 times magnification, on a real Rolex the date should just jump out. Otherwise post on reddit (r/watches) there are Rolex experts there who'll be able to tell by just one glance.

    • @tolga1246
      @tolga1246 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @Korey Lackford 10k could be okay for a gold Rolex but then you get a 40yo watch. A new one is closer to 40 than 10. I have a 16610 I would love to have one in gold one day. my 16610 is pretty collectible but I'm not ready to throw 20k at a solid gold one. Not yet anyway. I hope you are well during this crazy time! Cheers!

      Korey Lackford Day-Dates were always 18 karat gold I think. So that would be correct. If I were you I’d at least ask a local jeweler to meet the seller and you just to verify the watches authenticity. Be careful!

      Depends on the watch. A GMT should rotate both ways, a Submariner should only rotate one way. Gotta look at the specific watch.

      They should all tick, but a genuine one ticks very quickly. Serial number only does so much. If you're in the market to buy a used one I suggest meeting at a jeweler who can authenticate the piece for you. You'll have to pay them, of course.

    • @itscomplicatedwatches
      @itscomplicatedwatches  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Most Rolex movements when you turn the crown clockwise the hands turn clockwise, especially on the model I was talking about. However on some ladies watches, etc, that could be counterclockwizse. But I was correct in that a DateJust Watch turns cockwise while you set it. Maybe the one form 1943 didn't but they all do now and if someone is selling you a Rolex on the street this method still works.

    3:15 ... This watch is very old from the early days of copy cats ...it appears to be from China.
    BTW, Rolex is not really a great watch, per se. It is not even a prestigious name when compared to really great watches from Switzerland. However, it was the first to make a really water-resistant wrist watch for everyday use.
    I bought my first Rolex (Stainless Steel) in 1964 ... yes, I was enamoured and befouled by the adverisement. I was only 22. I used it until 1974 then gave it to my more affluent cousin. It was a real pain in the butt ... adjustment all the time, servicing ... I bought and used quite a few, the best was IWC ...
    Now I have 4 wrist watches:
    Racine Royale 1927 Handcrafted, 18 ct Gold, Dress watch, designed by Roger Gallet, the Racing Driver ... my grandmother ordered it for my father's Graduation Present. It never loses or gains. It is the only one in the world ...
    Omega, 18 ct Gold, Dress Watch 1960, my graduation present from my mother ...
    Philip Mercier, Radio Controlled ...PIA to adjust ...
    Rolex Quartz, Dress, Date/Month ...very good looking and my favourite ...the f* battery costs US $50 ...but does last hell of a long time ...
    Oh, yes, I bought 2 Rolex Day Date, in Pakistan in 2002 for almost pittance. They were really great. Even the watch repairer could not tell the difference. Stolen by my man servant in Nigeria ...
    I see nothing wrong with buying Copies for pittance. How can it be justified? Hermes Silk Scarf being sold for US $150, made in Thailand where it is being sold for US $15 or a Nike Sports Shoes for US $185 that is made in Mexico for US $ 10 ... consumer pays huge sums to fill the fat belly of PIMPS ...

    Nasty nasty nasty,would do well to just mute yourself...really....I thought they had sapphire crystals too? Bands may be replaced,as well as the pins etc.if it was opened by someone that doesn't have the proper tools to tighten it back down and repressurize you would be able to easily open it with your hands, especially if you wanted to have easier access to it in the future,as many do for repair, engraving to view the movement etc..... Once you open the back of a watch that says water resistant even if it has the rubber/silicone seal it still needs to be pressurized to maintain the claim of being water resistant...(or at least that is how it was 26years ago) I know the technological aspect of wrist watches has greatly increased but old watches mean old technology,so I am pretty sure that my statement is still true on older models...i worked on watches at a watch shop and then a jeweler later on.... I have seen authentics that I thought were replicas and vice versa....I don't like to use the word fake or nasty due to the fact that a watch mechanism and movement is a very complicated machine to create maintain and repair..... There are people that spend days trying to recreate a $20,000 watch because not everyone can afford a $20,000 watch, it doesn't make it right but it doesn't make it " nasty" either.....for many this art is a labor of love...hell you never know the Creator'sof the replicas could have possibly worked for the site producing the authentics in the past,and if given better quality material the outcome would be a better quality watch.... There are 80 year old men living that never thought that they would be able to afford an authentic..true watch makers require a great amount of knowledge and an equally amount of mechanical skill...possibly they bought a replica themselves or possibly it was a gift regardless how you look at it all watches are beautiful creationfrom those that are 99 cents to those that you could save for decades and still wouldn't be able to afford.... I don't mean to complain about your video I've had an affinity for the complication oh these tiny great machines that are coming more and more obsolete with each new day... There was a time when I watch mint status qualification wealth education, they've been given as gifts as long as they've been around to mark profoundly important dates in many people's lives and to disregard a timepiece as nasty because of the price tag or quality of said peace isn't correct because there's not a lot of people in the world who could sit down with a Altoids tinfull of random pins and sprockets and springs and come out with something as beautiful as a false Rolex, or better yet one that was lucky enough to be called authentic
