A Guide To Spotting A Fake Rolex
When it comes to luxury timepieces, few brands are as internationally renowned as Rolex. A Rolex is more than simply a watch; it is an investment that matures with age – a family heirloom that can be passed down through generations.
“Rolex produce around 700,000 Watches a year, counterfeiters product ten times that number”
Rolex are the
4th most Counterfeited
luxury brand in the world
Buying a fake Rolex is a bad idea. Not only are these watches illegal, they are not built to last. Cheaper fakes have been known to last as little as two weeks, while even the better counterfeit models can only be expected to have a three-year life span.
If you are in the market for a Rolex.

I bought an Ebel Brasilia men's wristwatch in 18ct yellow gold on the platform Chrono24 at Watches.co.uk on 05.06.2018. The watch was delivered a few days later with a parcel service. I am very happy with this beautiful piece, it is exactly as described by the seller. I would always buy a watch from the reliable dealer again!
