I have learned a lot about Rolex watches real and replica. Well now in this day and age I have found Rolex replicas that can not be told apart from the real Rolex unless you take the back off and after you do that you will find the same movement used in Authentic Rolex Tudor watches and that is a Swiss made 2836 2836-2 Swiss ETA movement. You can find that movement in some Rolex Tudor watches, there are also other Swiss ETA movements used in Rolex Tudor watches you will also find in Replica Rolex watches. Today if you look the best replica with be made out of 316l SS, have all the exact stampings and markings as the real Rolex's, replicas use the same saphire crystal, correct 3-D sticker with correct numbers on back of replica, and everything I did not mention they, the replicas have. So to all you people that do not actually know all these FACTS keep buying Tudor's and any all 316l stainless steel Rolex's I will get the same all 316L stainless steel with the same Rolex Tudor movement for $250.00 lifetime warranty. I have worked with this dealer for over13 years not one of my watches have ever broke and I get to send them in for free maintenance/lubrication all done no cost while Tudor and Rolex watches are charged anywhere between $100.00 to $500.00. I also own a authentic Rolex air king and it does not work as well as my Replicas, he cleans my air king for free for me as well.

I have a Replica Rolex Submariner, the only ways to spot this as a fake is the the date is not magnified as much as the real thing, and the bezel on a genuine has 120 clicks to make complete circle, this one has 60, and it has the see thru crystal back, the watch is a really nice fake. Has every marking in the perfect spot. I would like to sell it though, just cant find anywhere that will let me.The fun is over, I couldn't resist telling everyone its a fake, now it just sits.

When I saw the comment that Rolex did not make any Gold plated watches, I was shocked. Not too many people know that they did indeed. My father recently gave me his Rolex which was purchased in 1979. It is gold plated and is absolutely real! Someone else commented that real rolexes backs were always 3 point wrench removals! WRONG!! Mine is inface knurled all the way around. People really need to do their homework before spouting off that they know something when they are in fact incorrect.
