This here thing, this Rolex, folks talkin’ ’bout it all the time. What’s the big deal, I say? Well, I heard tell it’s ‘spensive, real ‘spensive. And when somethin’s that ‘spensive, you know there’s gonna be folks tryin’ to make a quick buck. They call ’em replica Rolex, these fake ones.
Now, I ain’t no expert, but I heard a thing or two. They say these replica ones, they look just like the real deal. Shinin’ and all, lookin’ fancy. But they ain’t the real thing. Not by a long shot, I reckon. My neighbor, she got one, thought she was gettin’ a bargain. Paid a pretty penny, but not as much as the real one. She was so proud, showin’ it off to everyone.
Then, wouldn’t you know it, it stopped tickin’. Just stopped. Dead as a doornail. She took it to the watch fella in town, and he just laughed. Said it was a fake Rolex, a replica. Said it wasn’t worth the metal it was made of. Poor woman, she was so upset. Learned her lesson, though. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
These replica Rolex Ref.86348, they’re all over the place, I hear. They even got numbers and such, trying to fool people, that Ref.86348. People trying to make you think it’s the real McCoy. But it ain’t. I heard a real Rolex, you gotta open it up, look inside. Need some special tools, ain’t like openin’ a can of beans. These fake ones, sometimes they got a see-through back. Real ones, nope.
One fella, he told me he got a replica Rolex Submariner. Said it was the best replica. Looked real nice, he said. 41mm, that’s what he said, But it’s still a fake. He had another, replica Daytona 116519. Said that was even better. Clean, he called it. Clean replica Daytona. Don’t matter how clean it is, still a fake, though. Still just a replica Rolex.
So, how can you tell if it is a real one? Here is what I heard:
- That number, that Ref.86348, gotta check it. Every real Rolex got its own number. Like a fingerprint, I reckon.
- That tickin’ sound, real Rolex, it ticks different. Smooth like. Fake ones, they tick louder. Sometimes.
- The weight, a real Rolex, it’s heavy. Got good stuff inside. Fake ones, they feel light. Cheap.
Another fella, he told me he got an old Rolex, a vintage one. Rolex DayDate, 1803, that’s what he said. Said he got it for a good price. But the bracelet, that metal band thing, it wasn’t the original. Not the one that came with it. Still a Rolex, he said. Maybe, but i guess it make a different on price.
They got all kinds of these replica Rolex watches. Submariner, GMT Master, Daytona, Deepsea, sounds like a bunch of fish to me. And they got some they call “limited edition.” Sounds fancy, but still just a fake. A replica.
These factories, they makin’ these replica things, they gettin’ better at it. Some of ’em are real good, I hear. Hard to tell the difference. But a Rolex expert, he can tell. He knows what to look for.
So, if you’re thinkin’ ’bout gettin’ one of these Rolex things, be careful. Don’t get fooled by these replica ones. Save your money, get the real deal. Or don’t, it’s your money. Just remember what happened to my neighbor. Don’t want that happenin’ to you.
And that Ref.86348, that’s a popular one, I hear. Lots of fakes with that number. So be extra careful. You don’t want to be payin’ good money for a fake Rolex. No sir, you don’t. A best replica Rolex is still a fake one. Remember that.
Best to just stick to an honest watch, I say. One that tells time and doesn’t pretend to be somethin’ it ain’t. That’s what I think, anyway. You want the best replica Rolex? Just get a real one.
