Accie's fake Rolex.

Just seen this advert in a magazine.
I’m surprised they can get away this that.

How about this made in 1929, 9 carat gold, in its original box, Rolex pocket watch? 🤔 I've kind of lost interest in that Rolex Submariner due to the cost and its close similarity to my Raymond Weil divers watch.

If I was going to be paying that much money on a pocket watch I would like to see much better quality photos.

If the watch IS in "very good" condition as the advert says, would you say it's a fair price?

The seller has a few watches up for sale and that particular one has by far the worst photos so I am left wondering what they are trying to hide.

If you're looking for something "a bit different" @Accy cyclist, but don't want to break the bank, have a look at Eberhard & Co watches. Very good bang-for-buck second hand.

And yes, poor photos on a listing are a potential alarm bell.

I don't mind paying to get a watch serviced if it needs it, but I steer away from potential basket cases.
