Fake high end replica 16610 on the bay

Fake high end replica 16610 on the bay

I know the pics arent the greatest so it's hard to gauge and assess certain flaws..but there's probably NO close ups of the stampings for a reason

http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-Submariner...item2c5371c726

pearl just aint right, SEL fit are off, crown sits too low, and this does not look like a D serial. this is fake, you'll have to trust me...END IT

SEL fit and pearl do indeed not look right but i think the crown is the right position but the crown itself is not quite right.

Winding crown is too far posterior (in the lateral view).

Lol, you've lost me there. I was looking to see if it was high enough up the watch when viewed from the side which it looks to be. Not quite under standing which way you're describing it to be the wrong position?

Sitting too low (towards back of the watch) ... Compare to your Rolex.

The fakes are always too far back consistent with ETA (non-Rolex) movement.

I think we meant the same thing! But i think it looks ok. The top edge of the teeth of the crown should just be touching/level with the bottom the bezel teeth. And on this watch it looks like they do to me.

I also noticed on the bezel the teeth are cut differently when comparing them to yours.

You can also look at the two "bidders" their history and names certainly point towards a scam

They only have to fool some of the people some of the time to make money.
