You sound like you're ovulating. I am not sure why you are so upset. You asked a clear question and it was answered. Apparently you can't be bothered with pulling up a picture of a gen and putting this next to it for comparison. If I showed my 10 year old he could tell the glaring defects. Macro pics are not necessary. The fact that you are told EVERYTHING IS WRONG is not an insult. It's the truth. This is a forum and we assume that we are interacting with grown adults. I don't think anyone here would've thought that we were emotionally damaging you for life. Relax a little and don't take things so seriously.
Are you okay?

You're suggesting i'm ovulating an child (weird) who is less adept at identifying watches than your 10 year old and then say "Relax, don't take it seriously."
Which is it? Is this a post where you insult new people or just ask questions get them answered?

Just because you couldn't resist making a completely unhelpful comment and I point it out, doesn't mean I'm offended. Thats just what happened. And the uselessness is highlighted by the people who actually understood the question and helped.
Now if you want to talk about sounding insulted, lets look at your reaction to me pointing it out. Don't get mad. It's just a picture of a watch.

You wanted the truth, you got it, but tbh:



If you like the watch, keep it, if you don't like it, do what you insinuated, and profit off someone offline, then come back when you're ready to upgrade, and the experts will point out all the flaws and destroy that one too....

You must have a very high opinion of yourself if you think anybody gives a rat's ass about you "pointing out".
Everybody understood your question very well, but you still can't be bothered by just looking at 2 pics and maybe make a more constructive question for the public opinion.

neither of the watches the OP has shown are replicas, just common fakes.
The clue is in the word, the watch has to replicate the gen.

The makers of that watch didn’t give a damn about making it remotely like gen therefore it doesn’t even make replica grade.

op the thing is, nobody is gonna waste time to give you a fully detailed breakdown of the flaws of this watch for you to better understand when it’s so immediately fake to begin with. If it were a high end rep people would look at it closely and discuss it.

I'll probably get roasted for this too, but just being honest. As a newbie, I can't see the big differences you guys see, even looking at them side by side. I see the bezel color and the end links, but that's it. It's clear I've got lots to learn..

OP. Not a pepsi, but I found this video helpful.

Amazing how a little bit of knowledge changes your whole perception. I cant unsee the differences now.

So this kinda blew my mind. Like... really.
I 100% considered a fake and a rep to be the same thing before today. I didn't understand why everyone's crotch was so chaffed by the question.
I legit thought that "if a watch looks similar to _______ therefore its a rep of ________."
I was super frustrated when someone said "its not even close enough to gen to critique" or something along those lines. I thought... "It looks like a Pepsi GMT, how is that not close enough to gen to discuss?"
Of course i'd been roasted into oblivion by that point so I made the obvious choice to keep my mouth shut lol. I honestly didn't understand that statement.
When I write (type) this ----> fake vs replica <---- as I sit here, my mind definitely conjures two different things in terms of those words when contrasting them to each other. But I would have used them interchangeably in conversation before today. If someone asked "is that a rep?" or "is that a fake?" the answer would be the same, "yeah."

Interesting...

Im sorry, but you are still way off.

First, your question wasnt “is this a rep or a fake”, nor it was hinting that way. Additionally, after 3 pages, you still needed @RepPossessed to spoon-feed you the pics of a gen pepsi and your common turd, becuase you couldnt be bothered to open google.

Theres a huge difference between folks asking questions, because they are new to the rep world, and lazy bums that just troll most of the time, but what you have demonstrated is just lazy and entitled, which doesnt fly here very well.

Trying to cover it up by “oh gosh I didnt know rep and fake were different” is just… aarrrghh

I get that you are new here, but you have been here for 2 months, more than enough time to do some basic reading, theres FREIGHT TRAINS of information, detailed posts, photo reviews, comparisons, etc etc on this forum.
Its a gold mine, so grab a shovel and start digging!

I assure you that I didn't intend to create "aarrrghh"
My initial question and the comment above have been 100% honest posts.
Yes, I should have looked at gen pics before asking, but I didn't realize that.
Retrospectively, I was lazy. I (thought) I preferred or desired the detailed perspective of the "experts" here to my untrained eye attempting to see everything ya'll see if I had looked at gen photos myself.

I do respect the volume of information and wisdom here.

All that being said, I stand by my statements regarding the comments.

This sums up the entire thread...you were too lazy to investigate what you bought
You bought a rubbish copy for $100 without looking at any pics of genuine, what did you really expect?

Don't be throwing dirt at anyone who responds to your post, put it down to experience and either spend more next time after proper research (there's thousands of posts of this) , or buy a genuine one

If you spent as much time helping yourself, you would not have to spend so much time asking others for help !

How about you just stop typing, and go away until you do at least a small amount of study on the subject material ??

"Standing by" your previous, low- IQ statements only increases the size of the hole in your already sinking ship !
