FAKE Pam 111 on Risti? What y'all think :)

Few things that are suspicious to me -

1. the CG... pin... looks recessed.

2. "L SWISS MADE L" looks purposely "hidden" ^^ and it seems too close to the "6".

3. Lume color seems too yellow.

What do you guys think? I have no clue about that Chopard, as I have no detail knowledge.

 

[JOEJOEJOE]

On second thought, it looks like a Pam 001 or older 111... CG looks polished, doesn't it?

The dial looks sandwiched though from this angle.

I vote from looking at that pic how it is a REP 111h

Dead give away the recessed cannon pin

Chopard is a fake imo because of its non-existant AR.


Also, you can see the guy's reflections in the picture. How cute.

Unless 5218-203/A came with a different variation, the crown and CG look wrong

 

[Jurgenk]

Agreed, both fakes

But at least he knew to conceal the cannon pin and L Swiss made L with the light reflections.

The cheap pleather strap looks standard rep OEM issue.

To me that's the biggest tell. You could almost sneak this onto the risti site after a DSN treatment and a new band... Come on now...

So why haven't the ristis come down on this already?

 

[Caseydog]

Both do look to be fakes.

 

[Aquaracer]

Ya know what- I think you're right- Especially the sunken pin on the CG- definitely un-gennish.

 

[Jurgenk]

How is it that the repaneristis are tougher on this stuff than the paneristis?

Or are they just being polite?

 

[acidzerocool]

The more I look at that PAM the worse it gets....

*Cannon Pin Recessed
*CG pin is recessed
*Screws to hold the band also recessed
*Crystal looks mineral
*font looks off (not correct script)
*CG lever is thin on top and thicker on bottom easy tell on reps

Anyone have anything else to add...... and all this from a sh&ty pic of the front

 

[Jurgenk]

exactly my thoughts- not just below DSN/TWA/Vacuum quality, but < OEM asian quality. like a canal street deal...

Someone will call him out for sure, don't worry, once one of them spots a rep they all go at it like sharks.

The guy's got the balls, though...either that or he's simply 'testing the waters' over there...

:wink:

:roll: i wonder which member from the rep boards will log in risti and call him out :lol:

 

[Jurgenk]

it is inevitable that someone will speak up, and it will probably be someone from here.

it takes one to know one...

you can't bullsh&t a bullsh&tter...

 

[Sylar]

Im surprised that i has gone this far on Risti without anyone calling him out.

 

[hk45ca]

that is right enzo, the less they know about our watches and the more we know about theirs the better off we are. 8)

 

[islands52]

damn you guys have eyes.

I am a member of tz since maybe 98 and of Paneristi since say 02' and I would have just scrolled right on by that pic without a second thought. Most members there are like that, we are not really concerned with detailed minutiae of pins and fonts. They like pics of rare models, different exhorbitantly priced straps and pictures of PAMs with fine wines, cars, cigars, etc...

Believe me no one is going to notice unless the poster calls attention to himself.

... no pasta shots with reppaneristi, we suffer ramen noodles in a styro-bowl, that might be a good contest?

Picture your watch next to your favourite fast food takeaway

LOL!

Freakin' Enzo that is so funny. I love the chum and shark analogy too. :lol:
