Legit Check - 2013 Rolex GMT

Never owned one of these so I'm not too sure what I'm looking for. Hoping someone on here can help. Thanks in advance.

Fonts look a bit suspicious. I would stay away. Lume dots at the bottom as well.

Look at the coloring and font spacing on the bezel.. It's not even close to lining up!

Protective film over the bracelet usually means fake from China
Clasp looks very bad, round edges and not properly aligned - I am sure that it's fake

Yeah, so does an OP who has posted nothing but fake watches before, and is vague about where the watch is from. I'm sure Trapstar will be back soon with a different screen name and more fake watches to give him pointers on. Can't wait!

Not good. Hard to tell from the picture but there is either way too much spring bar showing on the right side of the bracelet (underneath) or way to much space between the end piece and last link.

Completely fake. Also, might I add that we don't condone the purchasing of fakes. I assume that you knew this was not a genuine article when you posted it.

Fake! But I'm sure you already knew that based on the label you have taped to the bracelet. I Googled Rolex 51756 and guess what came up first? 👎👎

Those are QC pictures from a Chinese fake watch seller.
I'd guess that the OP wants to know if people will be able to spot it as a fake.

The answer is that most people won't know (or care) but some will and most importantly, you will.

I really didn't know. I've never owned a Rolex, which is why I signed up to this website for help. The watch was from someone online who was looking to sell it for a decent price. I won't be under a different screen name either so you can keep waiting.

Since you are genuinely trying to buy a Rolex and avoid getting scammed, may I suggest you go to an AD or use a Trusted Seller on TRF? You seem to have a knack for spotting fakes online and it's just a matter of time before someone sells you one.

If it's too good to be true, it usually is....

Frankly, if you are a member here (TrF), and are inexperienced in owning Rolexes, and buy a "Rolex" from flea-bay, you deserve what you get. No sympathy from me.

It is clearly a FAKE. The Bezel, dial, the crown and the bracelet. You can see it's a FAKE. And the way it is wrap. If you don't want to get scam. Buy from a Rolex AD. Since you're not familiar to a Genuine and a Fake.

If you're new, pay the extra few hundred bucks and buy from a TRF seller like Tony.

If you want to pick it up yourself and aren't near Cali, then it's worth spending a bit more and getting it from your AD. You will also get an education in the process.
