Dear Charlie,

While the serial number does correspond with the watch, several details look “off” to us, and so we cannot confirm authenticity.

-One of the pushers has vertical brush lines, while the other is horizontally brushed.
-The crown’s metal color looks off

-The serial and case number look poorly engraved

-The watch with that serial number was produced in late 2007, and those usually come with black date-wheels.

I recommend sending the watch to the closest service center for a manual inspection, and eventually if everything checks out, a refinishing and service.

I remain at your disposal.

Sincerely,

Amr Sindi

Just read your 10 other posts. You are either the bad luck king or bad luck yourself. Not sure which.

Seems strange that Hublot can't "confirm authenticity"...

"Several things look off"

I can imagine answer from Rolex:

"It's fake, and now destroyed"

I would bring the watch to an AD to make sure.
Worst case the watch is fake.
Best case it is a Frankenwatch.

They have not confirmed it as fake. They have recommended you get the watch properly checked out which is what you should have done in the first place.

This and other posts of yours are not quite adding up.

Start to deal with these things properly. Until then nothing more concerning this matter.
