I think this says enough :facepalm:

I don't know guys, they sound pretty smart, I don't even understand what the hell this means:

[BLINK][BLINK]"The position of the crown on the case is a dead giveaway.

The ETA movement will demand that the crown sit lower.

Look at the watch in profile from either the 12 o'clock or 6 o'clock position...

wear does the crown sit - if more of the crown sits below the mid point, it's fake."
[/BLINK][/BLINK]

I've never heard this as a tell... and, all my watches must be gen!

I think he was trying to say if the crown in relation to the case sits lower than central it's fake.
if the crown is dead centre it's real.

Oh god does that mean i speak their language??

hahaha

not all of those guys are asshats though.. remember, generalizing about gen owners is just as bad as their generalizing about reps/rep owners.

Haha it is sure worth a laugh...just shows their ignorance to replicas, and that the majority of these people would believe most replicas are genuine!

Not to worry, they're only talking about Grade 1 Swiss replicas that have the crown etched on the crystal and say "ROLEXROLEXROLEX" on the inner bezel.

LOL

Well I know you can get banned for posting a REP on a GEN forum, so I guess that means you'll get a stern talkin too and a time out for posting a GEN on this fourm. :lol:

What's real sad about GEN owners talking about reps? That most of those GEN owners probably own reps and not even realize it, or worse they own reps, but talk crap just to keep up the illusion that they have "money"

I have no sympathy or time for douche bags like that.

Been over there and done that and I can tell you from experience that a lot of the guys are full of crap. The are very knowledgeable about gens but when it comes to a rep they don't know their ass from a doughnut, me included. being around those guys made me think all reps were nothing more than funding for terrorists. To them, anyone that owns a rep is should be strung up by their short hairs and flogged. You will get banned for just talking about a rep and god forbid you own one and admit it...

I agree with you on that wizawuza, it's just funny how confident they are with their 'tests'.

anyway, I heard the best gen test is to put the watch in a blender like SMIDSY... ;)
