Fake Rolexes always make great gifts, even the ugly ones!!!!!!!!!!

Most people I know who started out with a fake eventually ended up with the real McCoy :-) could be like training wheels I guess

Mate it's a fake.
Now as a good member of this forum you should destroy the watch. Joking, but really that's the right thing to do. Cheers |

The Seiko is a great watch.
There's more to a Rolex then what you just see or feel. Yes there is the name Rolex on it. However, these are rugged watches. They've been designed to handle all sorts of environmental conditions. On top of that, they are a timeless design, much like a Porsche 911. You can still see the styling cues from the original submariner to the most recent version, much like with the first 911 to the current day ones. Beyond that, they look good in either casual clothes or a suit, or whatever. Durable, long lasting, simplistic elegance. That, and it's a Rolex. A crown for every achievement, so they say.

Like I always say: THE CYCLOPS TELLS IT ALL! The date is too small a real Rolex Cyclops would magnify it about 2.5 times.
