Title: Fake rotary watch?
Post by: aaron1867 on October 24, 2012, 06:22:00 PM
Ha, bought a watch of ebay (lol) and someone told me it is fake and I think so too.

Anyone had experience with these watches? The stamp on the back of isn't even level.

fwiw, I have no idea on price of these watches and Google varies, paid £75, from £200 apparently, so obviously worried it's a fake! Obviously too late now, as I threw box away lol

If it looks like a fake, is priced like a fake, then it's probably a fake.

I'm sure it's a real watch though.

Show it to Simon Trumper when you next see him, he'll know. He'll value it pretty accurately, too.

I wouldnt worry if it is or isnt.

But for the purpose of this thread it is most likely fake.

If you want to spend £75 on a watch spend a touch more and get something else.

Always keep the box and papers for any expensive watch that you buy.

If you want a decent watch for a decent price then consider  a second hand one from someone like Herbert Browns ( no relation ) :)

If you want to spend £75 on a watch buy 7 of these & a big mac meal imo.

What model was it? As far as I'm aware mens Rotary watches don't pass £200?


I guess that's a good price range to fake as they can be made for nothing and convincingly sold at a 50% mark down or w/e on rrp
