A project watch has not a Rolex stamp
Nov 26, 2009,13:48 PM
When a project watch has a Rolex stamp in the case back, than it is for me a fake watch.
4 months a go I had a man in the shop who bought a watch like this as a real 3646, he paid a lot of money for it.
A lot of people do not see it any more the difference between a real 3646 and a project watch.
So I think that is a dangerous situation.

First off Thanks to Adrian and the SD crew for organizing such a great event. We occupied the top floor of Stone Brewery, the place is huge. We walk up the stairs to the 2nd floor and this greeted us. The place was packed, there were about 50-60 attendees...
Thanks for sharing the event!

and it does not look like the owner is trying to pass it off as anything other than a project, which imo is really cool.

As I said, not my watch

it has the Rolex markings and clearly the VDB markings from the maker. All I hear all the time is the story of someone who paid a lot of money for a fake watch, but nobody here is selling them. Always in defense of others, very very altruistic and honorab...
What is your stance on say, replica cars?

I understand your position when the intent is to deceive. But unscrupulous people should not be lumped together with people who lack that intent. Locally, there is, by way of example, an absolutely magnificent Alfa MM replica. Is this a fake or a loving r...

The Rolex Panerai watches were never offered for the civilian market, are a long time out of production and are available in extremely low quantities at very high prices. It is not surprising at all that lovers of the Rolex Panerai era try to replicate th...
Exactly!

Hi Guille, My post wasn't directed at you, but I completely agree with your answer. Thanks. Rare, out of production, desirable. Just like that Alfa I mentioned Created as a product of their enthusiasm, not as some money making scheme. As for the $$$$ fake...
