Found this little gem today
http://www.businessinsider.com/a-wal...watches-2015-8

Sadly, I agree with the AP statement. Some of the offshores are out of control. But in a way, thats the point.

Cliffs:
- Buy Rolex

- Hublot "Hublot put the whore in horology. The brand spent the better part of three decades in obscurity, until Jean Claude Biver took the reins in 2004.He brought in a new designer, increased the prices to shift the perception of the brand, and focused almost entirely on product placement and celebrity endorsements."

- Panerai "Panerai was a mediocre Italian government-contract instrument maker until Rambo came along and made it cool, just as oversized watches were gaining in popularity."

- AP "Wearing one of these is like driving a G Wagon. Theoretically its awesome, but between Jay Z lyrics and the Kardashians, vulgarity has taken over." (I actually kind of agree with this. Some of the Offshores are getting out of control)

- PP "You never actually own a Patek Phillippe. You merely look after it for your douchebag son."

- Apple Watch "STFU"

LMAO

Sup brahs - disappeared off the face of the earth, had to deal with a chit-ton of personal issues. But I need your help! My boy is about to cop this Sub, but to me it just looks way off. Compared it to my own 116613 and this 116610 just looks weird to me. The cyclops looks off, but everything else looks solid. I don't really know a lot about the SS Sub, so tell me whether or not it's fake!

Edit: I Apologize for the big sized images.

Cyclops isn't enlarging the date at all. Red flag

Open it up only real way to know for sure, if seller refuses to open the watch it's most likely a fake.

Adding onto this, Rolex has different magnification for their cyclopses. Or it's at least suspected that they do.
http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=408669

To me, the rolex in question looks to be genuine. The lume pip and indices, along with the crownguards appear to be those of a genuine Rolex.
