Rolex or Replica?? Don't get E-Screwed!!
Many people are buying and selling Rolex and other fine timepieces over the internet.
Most are honest people representing their product correctly. However, some are either
intentionally or unintentionally representing their watches as something they are not.
Having a resource to clarify this information can mean the difference between making a wise
investment in a quality timepiece, and overpaying for something that was misrepresented.
Probably one of the easiest ways to identify a fake Rolex is by the caseback. Counterfeiters will often use a clear display, or "skeleton" caseback, thus allowing you to view the inner workings of the watch. The problem is Rolex does not make such a watch, therefore, these models are easily identified as counterfeit. (Please Note: There are only 2 "known" examples of Rolex watches with glass "exhibition backs", and they are both vintage manual wind models from the 1930s, and they were not "production" models.)
