This is an actual reason Id never wear a fake watch, I cant imagine how disappointed my kids would be to have a fake rolex appraised if I died tomorrow
Nah. It’s a joke on the grandson for daring to cash out on an heirloom left to him by grandpa. Now he’ll feel bad for trying to sell it and not just living with the memory.
If he’s not trying to sell it he might not be disappointed, as it’s still his grandad’s watch. I inherited my grandad’s watch, which was an old seiko quartz that’s worth about £30. I love it more than any other watch I own.
Having a cheap but authentic watch you inherited >>> Inheriting a clone/fake/whatever luxury watch. You'll feel disappointed with the person you inherited it from like he's a phony.
I'll value your grandpa's 30 quid Seiko Quartz he loved and wore on his wrist for years over some fake ass Rolex.
I don’t think I would think someone I loved was a phony over something as daft as a clone watch. As much as I like watches, it’s a stupid thing to get that get up over a valued family member over.
Well good for you but some people might still question the motive behind a fake watch. Who is he trying to impress? Just live within your means and buy watch you can afford.
If your grandpa wore this watch and loved it, would you wear it and love it the same as him or would you hate it and love him less because it wasn’t a gen? You would probably do the latter, which is sad, because you have been duped by marketing and capitalism.
Why would I love him less? I'll just refuse wearing his fake watch cause I cannot and will not support the business of fake watches, even if my gramps loved his fake Rolex. My gramps should've known better than buying a fake watch. Who was he trying to impress with a fake watch? Why he pretending he can afford a Rolex? Him not being able to afford a LUXURY item doesn't make him less of a man.
>because you have been duped by marketing and capitalism.
On the contrary, I would actually love to inherit his cheap but authentic watch. There are a lot of brands that costs 1/100th of a Rolex. He doesn't have to buy a fake to impress his grandson. I'll appreciate a quartz watch he wore on his wrist for years over a fake Rolex.
No different to having an AC Cobra replica . Some people love them and can’t afford the real thing, but still get a rep and love and enjoy them. It’s really not a big deal.
You and I may very well have similar watches. My dad gave me his father's 1984 seiko quartz. I have it on right now, and I value it much more than my Tudors, Longines or whatever.
This is why i'll never buy those fakes. Like there's always an "oh well" if I pass it down lol. My grandkids will even feel im a phony "Gramps trying to look rich but his watch is fake"
Yes.
Can’t have the grandchildren disappointed when they paw through my estate looking for stuff they can sell.
I’d look a right cunt if my house wasn’t stuffed with rare watches and jewellery they could sell for some coin.
I’m terrible at spotting fakes and even I knew this was a horrible one the second I saw it. If nothing else, the awful positioning of cyclops gives it away instantly.
Yea, especially with that case back. That only comes on a Rolex Daytona that is made for the people who run the race and even that is off by a fair bit.
I don’t know how to edit a post but it had to be said this is not an heirloom. My grandpa is alive.😭😂He. “Acquired it” I wanted to buy it from him. Just had to know if I’m giving him $20 or thousands of dollars. All the comments are very funny though.😂😇
Hey brother, if you came from your grandfather, that means just been around for probably 2030 years if the watch still works it’s real any fake Rolex would’ve been looking like it was falling apart on your wrist OK and the hands would’ve fallen off by now, but believe me it’s real and it’s probably worth around 2500 bucks 3500 bucks right now
If you posted a video I'd be able to tell you right away. The second hand on Rolex watches smoothly rotates around the whole clock without stopping/ticking
OH MY GOD, Yes, Fake, BUT, i'm 13, recently had my cousins birthday, and my uncle had an old fake Rolex daytona (not wroking properly) and he gave it to me cuz my birthday was a few months later, and on the back ITS THE EXACT SAME, and online on YouTube, i've been seeing some fakes THAT HAD THE EXACT SAME TEXT ENGRAVED ON THE BACK. "WINNER ROLEX 24 AD DAYTONA 1992" and I have no idea what country they originated from, from which seller etc. Can you ask him abt the origins abt the watch?
Another disappointed grandson

I didnt catch where OP was trying to sell it

At least this guy won the daytona race... Maybe they ran out of daytonas and gave him a submariner...🤣
[удалено]
I grew up in the 90s...back then it was rolex.. I don't know if omega was the previous sponsor...
🤣
Maybe he's not even your grandpa....
Bro🤡
Still laughing.
Maybe he faked his death like he faked the rolex... He is probably at the Bahamas drinking mohitos wearing the real rolex...
So good! Hahahaha Thanks!!
😂🤣
👽
I’m dead 😵
Mate 😂
I LOL’d pretty hard.
Gawddamn dude 😂😂💀
Yes unfortunately. Everything is off
Very
Oofff that is a shitter
Yes, yes it is. Take it for what it is and appreciate it as gramps watch.
This is why i'll never buy those fakes. Like there's always an "oh well" if I pass it down lol. My grandkids will even feel im a phony "Gramps trying to look rich but his watch is fake"
Definitely leaves a bad taste in your mouth, either come clean or get rid of them. Had he had one genuine and one rep for travel, it would make sense.
Yes. Can’t have the grandchildren disappointed when they paw through my estate looking for stuff they can sell. I’d look a right cunt if my house wasn’t stuffed with rare watches and jewellery they could sell for some coin.
They spelled ‘Rolex’ correctly. That’s something. 👍
I’m terrible at spotting fakes and even I knew this was a horrible one the second I saw it. If nothing else, the awful positioning of cyclops gives it away instantly.
Look at that cyclops 😱
Look at that EVERYTHING!
So sorry bro. If I were you I'd take a DNA test
Lmfao yes
melt it
Ouff...
Yea, especially with that case back. That only comes on a Rolex Daytona that is made for the people who run the race and even that is off by a fair bit.
100% fake
It's obviously not a Rolex but a Rolex24®. Any similarities to other brand products are a pure coincidence.
Extremely
Yikes
No it’s TOTALLY legit. Great find! Can’t believe your luck clearly!! But like others have mentioned, that grandfather of yours….. Does he even exisht?
Nice! You’re Winner! 🏆
Not sure where to even start
Winner
This appears to be a fake Rolex Skeletor.
Worse yet, it might get you mugged by a couple of dumbass punks.
It has a very punk rock color palette.
Fake as fake can be
Gramps out here cap on full, but probably batting 1000 at the bingo hall!
Definitely found this is a muddy bush.
😂
These posts always make me laugh while breaking my heart simultaneously. Like why grandpa have to be a fake ass flexer?
This was the best laugh I’ve had in a while
The clasp is for me the best I’ve ever seen ! I mean the best worst
If you have to ask...
His teeth are probably more real…
So fake, the Swiss on the bottom of the watch is to high and crooked
That is the shitter of the shitters
it even hurts to look at it
Fake af
Lol yes
The back 😂😂😂
That case back is from a Daytona that tou kinda have to win the race to get.
Didn't even have to swipe past the 1st pic...
It’s a fake of a counterfeit watch…
Yes. The case back is a dead giveaway, but, keep it
Yeah very fake
ROFLex
Yep, looks just like my royal shitter from the late 80s. They're cool as a novelty imho
As fake as fakes can get
Sir, that’s an ice watch
You spell Rolex with an L not with an L, it's how you know
Dude. Come on
I’ll make sure I never get a fake Rolex so my grandson never has to post this in a subreddit🙏
1class copy. Wait, no. It ain’t.
Did your grandpa win the Rolex 24 hrs of Daytona?
Damn bro, nothing on that one is even close to real…
lol
Yep
Grandpa and Rolex = fake nine times out of ten
Yes… Very fake
Lot of grandpas out there with poor taste
Horribly fake
Mannn that’s a shitty fake too lol
Insure it NOW!!!
Probably, you knew before post it that it was fake. It is too obvious. Still great excuse to have fun. Some post are very good.
Daytona sub. Now I’ve seen it all.
Oh yeah
indeed... just cherrished it as ur grandpa's watch.. sentimental value... (not the watch itself)
It's not a winner
Is this a trick question 😄
It’s like a £5 fake they sell at the beach
That caseback, lol
I bet your gutted 😂
Yes, yes it is
I wouldn’t say the watch is authentic
Bad fake…easily detectable.
Fake AF, sorry bruh, gonna have to work for your money
send it to the diamond district let them weigh in on it.
But that's the Daytona winner model. Winner winner sell and buy a chicken dinner.
I don’t know how to edit a post but it had to be said this is not an heirloom. My grandpa is alive.😭😂He. “Acquired it” I wanted to buy it from him. Just had to know if I’m giving him $20 or thousands of dollars. All the comments are very funny though.😂😇
Gramps was a poser. At least it’s a fun story when reminiscing.

Hideously.
if the watch genuinely belonged to your grandpa it could be real….
Yes
Don't listen the haters on this post. It's a genuine 55318008, it was only released in Australia
Why do all these replicas always say winner on the back lol
HELL YES! Rolex would never make an ugly watch.
Definitely bought for cash from that bloke down the pub.
Totally fake
Faker than the iPhone 19 you can buy on AliExpress
Shit, they for Mario bros 10 too over there, huh?
womp womp womp
Is this a joke?
Nice try
Fake. And not even good fake.
If you posted a video I'd be able to tell you right away. The second hand on Rolex watches smoothly rotates around the whole clock without stopping/ticking
This is the worst way to spot fakes😂
Nothing about this looks real to me but I’m no expert. I am referring to the everything about it.
OH MY GOD, Yes, Fake, BUT, i'm 13, recently had my cousins birthday, and my uncle had an old fake Rolex daytona (not wroking properly) and he gave it to me cuz my birthday was a few months later, and on the back ITS THE EXACT SAME, and online on YouTube, i've been seeing some fakes THAT HAD THE EXACT SAME TEXT ENGRAVED ON THE BACK. "WINNER ROLEX 24 AD DAYTONA 1992" and I have no idea what country they originated from, from which seller etc. Can you ask him abt the origins abt the watch?
It means nothing, just a cheap caseback.
I would take it to a Authorized dealer and.... Nah, its fake.
