Scooba, you are about two months late to the party for this thread!!!!!!!

Let me just say that you lost me with xer's comment. Are you saying because he said they are fake, incorrect or whatever he called them, that this is fact?

I don't care to get involved with this "blueberry" controversy but I do know there are some reputable collectors that believe they are genuine. Only Rolex can solve the mystery of the blueberry insert not speculation by the collecting community or any one individual unless they are privy to inside information from Rolex.

For the sake of balance I have spoken to some "reputable collectors", dealers and London auction houses who are less than convinced with their authenticity...........so the debate is far from clear. For the record I am not a believer

Blueberry Bezelgate reminds me of Lee Israel's fake letters shenanigans years back (a good film with R.E.Grant btw).
The only ones giving succour to their legitimacy, were the dealers who sold them, and the gullible saps that had bought them........ because, in affect, they had to !
