Don't do it. The coke aftermarket bezels for the 116710LN are pure (excuse my french) crap.
There are 3 things the knock off bezels never get right: - correct depth of the bezel engraving - correct color of the platinum numbers - color gradient between black/blue, red/blue or in this case red/black There is no reason whatsoever to demand more than gray market prices for a watch with a fake bezel. If the seller would subtract the 800$ a 116710ln bezel in good condition is worth, this could be an interesting offer... |

Ah I didn't realize people were making custom bezels for the iteration. I just assumed a fake since an update coke version wasn't released.

Is it the bezel that scream fake or is it the whole watch? I'm still a newbie and my eye isn't as trained? Only ask because I prefer the updated number font as to the last iteration. Also, considering a BLNR, but the red kinda slaps...

Was able to get some other ones from the seller. Are these total shit? Or is it just the bezel? Don't have another to compare except for photos online. So it's kinda tough.

Loads of out of whack stuff there. Keep reading and looking at real ones. It's never been as dangerous for newbs.

Naturally the gratuitous posting of any fake watches or any discussion in relation to the quality or comparison of fake watches to real watches will be dealt with swiftly and severely.
The moderator's determination in his discretion will be final. The above is why no one will answer that. Its so the replica places dont get any more info than they already have. |

Love how they aligned the 12 with the 12 o'clock marker. True WIS. What are the odds 2 'different' watches have the same adjustment...hmmmm

It really is. After seeing some videos online, I feel like you often need the authentic and loops now t compare. Especially some of the rare ones that you don’t see as often. Makes me question all the ones I’ve seen on people in the wild.
