A real 18946 (and any Rolex ending in 6) is platinum. It should not say 18k, stainless steel, or "desing" anywhere. Pics would help but it sounds very fake, sorry.

Why would someone stamp a stainless steel base and then stamp a platinum Rolex model number on same watch if its fake ?
Doesn't make sense. I even had a guy that services Rolexes clean it for me |

Probably because the counterfeiter bought a fake case with "Stainless Steel" written on it and decided to turn it into this. The Rolex factory did not stamp "stainless steel" on a watch that was never made in steel, misspell the word "design," and for some reason scribble the last digit of the model number.

He made a few bucks. The watch is not of Rolex manufacture.

This is hilarious. We don't even need to see the photos.
Op, Apply logic for just one second. Does any of that you describe sound logical for a high end watch brand? Do you even need to ask? |

Lol. Sorry OP but this did make me laugh. For some reason fakes seem to have misspellings on them quite frequently.

Oh my. I just come here for entertainment and know nothing. Even to me that screams horrible fake. Just needs some chrome flaking off the case to be worse

Rolex Masterpiece ?
Awesome. They misspelled "design" and the "6" in the model # tripped and is in the process of falling off the case.

Masterpiece
for Fjweld
for your comment about " I've had other Rolexes band is definitely real " Oh Jeez? I love these guys Its not necessary to be rude yes the band is real and attached is a photo Naples has the most millionaires per capita in the world so its not unusual for our local flea market to have numerous jewelry dealers selling Rolexes ( real ones ). I took my wifes Rolex to a jeweler that works weekends at flea mkt to clean it. He had 15 used Rolexes ( real ) for sale there. Anybody know what a platinum band has stamped on it ? Do they just stamp platinum or use a number ? He saw my fake Rolex and cleaned it for me He didn't notice that it was fake because he didn't take it apart to see numbers He services Rolexes also. I showed watch to 3 other jewelers and they didn't know it was fake When I took band off I noticed the numbers and thought I would ask the forum. I appreciate the good replies Actually, I used the word inherit. I meant to say acquired. I bought the watch from Ebay which has a great return policy So they did not make a few bucks on me Alcan Cryten I have heard of manufacturers making mistakes and since Rolex is hand made ? The guys hand could have slipped when stamping the 6 ? Is that not possible ? Maybe he had a hangover ? back no chrome is flaking its the best looking fake I have seen I can get my money back $4000 from Ebay But an 18k white gold band like new, is worth a lot 2 carat diamond bezel and pearl diamond dial is worth a lot if real Not sure why they put a real 18k masterpiece band on a fake ? Seems like it would all be fake but band definitely real I understand watch base is a fake but still a mystery watch 347.jpg |
