Good article. I had a feeling this was happening. I would likely do the same if I was in that income bracket, as it is, I just tell people my rep is a fake. That avoids robberies too.

I wonder what a $3,000 replica looks like? Now I want one.

What if they are actually Noob in disguise ?

Most likely noob or VSF. If blinged out a very bad bezel and dial.

What is sad the person who ii is stolen from has the gen and is wearing the rep when it is stolen and reports it to the insurance company their gen was stolen and the insurance company pays for the gen as the chance of catching the thief is slim.

“This guy will take a $200,000 Rolex and copy it, using stainless steel and other metals, so it looks like the original but costs maybe $2,000 to $3,000 per watch,”

A gross overestimation on cost, even a "blinged out" Rolex does not go for six figures, never seen one sell for that amount anywhere. Apart from maybe a rare collectors edition Daytona at auction..

I think they may have added zeros to both numbers just to make absolutely sure the normal people reading it think of themselves as different. I.e. so they don’t have to feel like they are working in a cheap person’s field.

For good measure. I’ve had two reps stolen at knifepoint one in Knightsbridge the other in Wembley after an England game. Very brazen on both occasions and obviously handed over without objection. My gens live in the safe which is a shame but necessary
