Fake watch selling as gen on chrono24

[d3s19n]

Hey ya’ll I hope the seller doesn’t come after me but check out this listing.. I don’t know if I have it in me to report suspicious but thought it might be interesting to share

Here you can see genlike aerial alignment

And here they’ve managed to take the picture at the exact time of the instant date change

What do you all think??

I'm no expert, but that looks bad. I thought the date on the 3135 is supposed to immediately change at 12 o clock sharp. This one seems to slowly change between 10 to 2 o clock

That appears to be a Noob!

I am no rolex expert, but the bezel, pearl and SELs look terrible for me. Must be a rep (bad rep).

Omg that insert. There are so many problems with that watch that I don't even know where to start. 100% fake.

 

[KJ2020]

Wow that is so obviously a rep. What idiot would post a sale pic with the date like that.

 

[TLW77]

I have reported already suspicious on Chrono.

 

[d3s19n]

Alright good so I wasn’t just imagining it.. they wanted 10K for this watch with no papers.. now I wonder what chrono does once it’s reported

 

[Picksk]

You just saved some poor sod 10k, great work!

 

[exacten]

im curious about the story of that sale, the seller could have paid alot of money for a replica without knowing or he is intentionally trying to scam some poor bastard..

Reported

 

[DaleM]

Reported and informed the seller he has been ripped off.

 

[DaleM]

Wow that is so obviously a rep. What idiot would post a sale pic with the date like that.

this is Chris' response to me, "Dale this has been confirmed as authentic by an authorized dealer in Chicago but thanks for the try"

 

[Fervid]

Notice the name "Christopher S"

Maybe it's actually Chris Essery at it again.

How about this SS smurf with an aftermarket insert and dial?

Look at that date. It looks left justified. Anyone have any thoughts. The lugs look big for gen but I don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me.

The biggest tells for me are on the dial which we know has been replaced.

After that it's the date wheel which looks too much to the left.

Also the crystal and this crystal seems to be pretty damn reflective.

Looks like a gen sub with a crap dial and insert fitted.

Regrettably Chrono24 don't seem to care.
