Terrible Daytona Fake

http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-Daytona-SS...6.c0.m14.l1318 How does the D Series have the CRB?

Someone please do the honors and report this travesty.

I'm new here,but I have learned that the 9 on the small circle to the left is perfectly aligned with the 9 o'clock on the watch and that's a nono,real ones are not.

Look at the sub-dial 9 that is lined up perfectly with the number 9 on the dial. The real watch has the number 9 on the sub-dial slightly elevated above the number 9 on the dial.

i will probably be way off, but did not the earlier Daytonas, with the zenith movement line up at 9 and 3?

Must say what i know about fake or real rolex's and Daytonas, you could write on a postage stamp with a 2 inch black marker!

This is not the case with this watch. It claims to be a D series and is very much a fake:

To me the first picture show thin hands, 2nd and 3rd picture show fat hands. Two different watch entirely.

And ROLEXROLEX engraved inner ring on a D series? nah!
