Now, you listen up! I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout these fancy Rolex watches, ‘specially that black one, the Submariner, they call it. And this here’s about that “No-Date” one. They say it’s a real hot item. Some sayin’ they gettin’ it from “official flagship store.” Hah! Official, my foot! If it’s so “official,” why are there so many fakes going around, huh? Makes ya think, don’t it?
These young’uns today, they don’t know a thing. They see a shiny watch, they think it’s gold. But me? I got eyes like a hawk. I can spot a fake a mile away. First thing you gotta look at is the weight. A real Rolex Submariner, even that steel one, it’s heavy. It has some heft to it. If it feels light as a feather, you know somethin’ ain’t right. That fake stuff they use weigh nothin’.
Then there’s the metal. Real Rolex, they use this special metal. Oystersteel, they call it. Sounds fancy, don’t it? If that watch back is some cheap lookin’ metal with plastic inside, you better run! That ain’t no Rolex, that’s for sure. A real one is solid, all the way through.
Another thing, you gotta look at them hands on the watch. The minute hand, they call it. On a real one, that minute hand is kinda short. It don’t go over them little marks on the edge. But on a fake one, that minute hand might be too long. They don’t pay attention to them details, them fakers. They just wanna make a quick buck.
And the price! Oh, the price! If someone’s sellin’ a Rolex for cheap, you know somethin’s fishy. These watches, they cost a pretty penny. No one’s gonna sell a real one for peanuts. They tell me that the two-color one, that Submariner, weigh like 130g. Only a little bit is gold, like the middle, the crown thingy, and that spiny thing around the face. The price is high because it is not easy to get. They are not like the normal steel ones. You gotta know that, that is why it is expensive.
I seen some folks tryin’ to sell them fake watches for the price of a real one. Can you believe it? The nerve of some people! They think they can fool everyone. But not me! I’m tellin’ ya, you gotta be careful.
They got all sorts of tricks, these fakers. They copy everything. It ain’t easy to tell a real from a fake, not unless you know what you’re lookin’ for. They even copy that Submariner, the one with the green, they call it the Hulk. That 116610LV, that’s the number they use. It’s all a big mess, I tell ya.
So, here’s what you gotta do:
- Feel the weight. Real Rolex watches are heavy.
- Check the metal. Look for that Oystersteel. No plastic!
- Look at the hands. That minute hand should be short.
- Watch the price. If it’s too cheap, it’s fake.
- Don’t be fooled by fancy words like “official flagship store.” Use your common sense, that is important!
That’s the way it is. These days, you gotta be sharp. You can’t trust everyone. Especially when it comes to these fancy Rolex watches. That black Submariner, that No-Date one, it’s a nice watch, I’ll give ya that. But make sure you’re gettin’ the real deal. Don’t be a fool and get tricked by some fast-talkin’ salesman. That official flagship store ain’t always what it seems. You hear me?
They say knowin’ how to spot a fake Rolex is good when you’re buyin’ used watches. Well, I’m tellin’ ya, it’s good to know even if you’re buyin’ a new one! There’s fakes everywhere. You gotta be smarter than them. Use your eyes, use your head, and don’t let anyone pull the wool over your eyes. That’s all I gotta say about that. Rolex Submariner, real or fake, you better know the difference!
