Real or Rep?
A guy in my office has been wearing this for over a year and I finally was able to get him to give me pictures of it without seeming like a weirdo. Not planning to call him out of it's a replica just have always been curious. Bracelet is aftermarket (no logo on clasp).
I won't be able to get any more pictures lol TIA. ![]() ![]() |

The pix are not good enough for me to comment.
I can't even tell if it reads Rolex on the dial.

Fake. The crown is horrible on the dial. Date wheel location seems off.

The crown is obvious, why does he have an after market bracelet.

Just curious but why did it matter? I can't say I've ever been curious enough to get pics so just wondering.

Same reason, just curious if it was genuine or not. I don't want to call him out on it, he's a nice guy. I had wondered for a while and had an opportunity to have him text me some pics. I didn't plot or scheme for a year to get them lol

Where did he buy it? How much did he actually pay? 50 bucks? Five hundred? Ten grand? Does he KNOW it's a fake? If yes, why do it, to be a poser? If not, might he want to know it is indeed fake? Oy. ![]() |

Based on the hi-res photo, I'd say this watch is questionable at best.

I think he will know it is fake just fine and is probably enjoying the attention it/he is getting.. a man knows if he is wearing a real Rolex or not.
