Howdy, y’all! Today, let’s chew the fat ’bout High imitationRolex SubmarinerPurchasing. Now, I ain’t no fancy watch expert or nothin’, but I’ve heard things, you know? Seen some stuff. And I reckon I can tell ya a thing or two ’bout them look-alike watches.
First off, let me tell ya, folks are always lookin’ for a bargain. And these Rolex Submariner watches, well, they cost a pretty penny, they do. So, it ain’t no surprise that folks start lookin’ at them imitation ones. But hold your horses, I say! There’s a whole heap of things you gotta watch out for.
Now, I heard tell that a real Rolex Submariner has a certain heft to it. They say it’s ’bout 40 millimeters across, which is ’bout an inch and a half in old money. If it feels light as a feather, well, that’s your first clue somethin’ ain’t right. It should feel solid, like it’s worth somethin’, you know?
- Weight: A real one’s got some weight to it. Don’t be fooled by no lightweight trinket.
- Size: They say it’s ’bout 40 millimeters, or an inch and a half, across. Measure it up, if you can.
And then there’s the insides, what they call the “movement”. A real Submariner has somethin’ called a “Rolex calibre 3135” tickin’ away in there. These imitation fellas, they try to copy it, but they usually stick in somethin’ called an “ETA 2824” or some such. Now, I ain’t got a clue what all that means, but I reckon it’s like puttin’ a donkey engine in a Cadillac. It just ain’t the same.
The guts of the watch, that’s important! A real one’s got the real deal inside, not some cheap knock-off.
Another thing I heard tell is ’bout the numbers on the face. On them fake ones, the numbers are just painted on, plain as day. But on a real Rolex, them numbers are somethin’ special. They say they’re raised up, or maybe engraved, somethin’ fancy like that. You gotta look close, real close. And if the numbers look cheap and flat, well, you might be holdin’ a fake.
Look close at them numbers! Are they just painted on, or do they look fancy and raised up?
Now, I also heard folks talkin’ ’bout the serial number. Every real Rolex has got its own number, like a fingerprint. And I hear tell you can call up Rolex themselves, give ’em that number, and they’ll tell you if it’s the real McCoy or not. That’s a pretty good way to check, I reckon. If somethin’ feels fishy, that’s the thing to do.
The serial number, that’s the key! Call up Rolex and they’ll tell you the truth.
I’ve heard folks sayin’ them fake Rolex watches are gettin’ better and better. They look more and more like the real thing. But don’t let that fool ya. There’s always gonna be somethin’ off, somethin’ that gives it away. Maybe it’s the weight, maybe it’s the numbers, maybe it’s just a gut feelin’. You gotta trust your gut, I always say.
And let me tell you somethin’ else. Why would you want a fake anyway? It’s like wearin’ someone else’s shoes, ain’t it? It ain’t you. If you can’t afford the real deal, well, there’s plenty of other good watches out there. Don’t go tryin’ to be somethin’ you ain’t.
Fake watches are just that, fake. Don’t be fooled by a pretty face. It’s what’s inside that counts.
So, if you’re thinkin’ ’bout buyin’ a High imitationRolex Submariner, you better think twice. Do your homework. Ask questions. And if somethin’ don’t feel right, walk away. There’s plenty of honest folks sellin’ honest watches. You just gotta find ’em.
And that’s all I gotta say ’bout that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
Buying a watch? Be smart, be careful, and don’t get swindled!
Remember, a real Rolex Submariner is a fine piece of work. It’s an investment. It’s somethin’ you can be proud of. But a fake one, well, it’s just a fake. And nobody wants to be a fake, do they?
Be true to yourself, and you’ll always have the real thing. That goes for watches and everything else in life.
