    Default 75 cents

    So an old acquaintance of mine was at a yard sale and the guys wife was selling all his watches and stuff. Had this sitting there for 75 cents. The guy I know figured shoot I will grab it and many it's real. well I doubted it wa because of a few things I noticed, but Im not an expert or a watch collector, so here guys pick it apart

    Fake.

    1. Slate dials only came in SS/18K two-tones

    2. Rolex never stamped the back Submariner watches.

    3. Crown guards are wrong shape for a Submariner.

    4. Submariners only come with PCL in SS/18k two-tone and 18k gold/white gold models.

    5. The pearl indicator doesn't fit 'inside' the triangle marker.

    6. The model number marked on the back is incorrect for a Submariner.

    even a replica is worth something!

    at a minimum one can take it apart and toss a fresh movement in there to get it to run.

    since it's already worn out a little vintage homage watch creation with a thick plexi and an aged dial would make it a fun little project.

    I love hearing about finds like this... GL to your friend if he ends up playing with it. it's a great opportunity to take something cheap apart and learn about how they work.
