I have some opinions on this.

1. As said buy the seller. Some sellers think DavidSW and others like him have opened, inspected, likely polished, and pressure tested nearly every piece they take in.

2. For all the people saying the fakes are so good you can’t tell them apart I can guarantee you this simply isn’t accurate. There are many tells even on the best super clones on the market, such as finish, bracelet sel fit, bezel colors, bezel movements, weight, movement accuracy, etc etc etc that cannot be replicated accurately enough due to material, machinery, and skill restraints. There are many forums out there dedicated to these clone watches. Some people even Frankenstein them for their own enjoyment. Adding Gen crystals, Gen bezels, Gen hands, Gen date wheels etc etc. The overwhelming majority of these folks are innocent enough and just don’t have the means for Gens and find it to be a hobby of sorts. I don’t blame them and I find it interesting, legality and morality arguments aside. As long as they’re obv not trying to sell as Gen which I can tell you the huge majority aren’t doing that. Probably because they know they won’t get away with it. They’re very informed on all the things incorrect about their reps.

But yeah there is some non 0% risk these days. Especially if you’re uninformed yourself.

Point is there is a lot of info on the best fakes on the internet if you do some research as I’ve done in the last 2 years or so for this main purpose. The best super clones still don’t come close in real life to anyone who is looking at and wearing Gens day in and day out.

Do your own research. Understand the differences in these well made Chinese replica luxury watches that are hitting the market looking very similar to Gen movements. Educate yourself on what parts of the cases are different and the bracelet and the bezels etc. It’s on you to do this kinda research if you’re spending the kinda money it costs to buy Rolex’s or similar these days.
