Alright, folks, let’s talk about this Rolex Submariner two-tone black beauty I got my hands on. I saw it and I was like, “Gotta have it!” So, I started digging around to make sure I wasn’t getting ripped off.
First off, I looked at a bunch of pictures online, comparing real ones to fakes. You know, just to get a feel for what to look for. They say it’s all in the details, right?
Comparing and Searching
I spent hours, man, hours, looking at these things. Zooming in on photos, trying to see if the tiny little Rolex crown was there on the clasp. And the printing on the dial, it’s gotta be crisp, not blurry or sloppy.
- Checked the Clasp: Looked for that tiny Rolex crown, Made sure it was stamped in there nice and clear.
- Examined the Dial: The printing’s gotta be perfect. No smudges, no blurriness.
- Compared Prices: These things go for a lot of money, I saw online they can be anywhere from 8 grand to over 130! So, the price had to make sense.
I looked at the price tags too. These watches are expensive! Saw some online for like 13,000 dollars. I found one that was less than that, but still in that ballpark, so it seemed legit.
Made a purchase
After all that, I decided to pull the trigger and bought the watch! It was such a rush seeing this thing in person. Now I’m wearing it all the time, and every time I look at it, I’m reminded of all the detective work I did. It feels pretty good to know I didn’t get scammed!
This watch feels great on my wrist. It’s got some weight to it, but it’s not too heavy. And it looks good with everything, I wear it to work, I wear it out, I even wear it to the gym sometimes.
So, yeah, that’s my story about getting this Rolex. It was a whole process, but totally worth it in the end. I learned a lot about what to look for in a real Rolex, and now I’ve got a sweet watch to show for it!
