...the crown guards almost do NOT exist. ...the band is COUNTERFEIT/aftermarket. ...even the magnification of the date window is INCORRECT. ...if it walks like, talks like, and looks like......a DUCK...well, yupper, it is a FAULKER. ...have to agree w/buddy Orchi on this one. Stan.

The crown has triplock markings on it, but I don't think that model came with a triplock crown.

1st post and then bad news.
Why don't these characters do their research first on TRF, before going out and buying FAKE crap with a broken crystal? Why would you even consider a purchase like that ???? |

I think if you hit it one more time, perhaps with a bigger hammer this time, it will be perfect.
