^I nearly bought one, this 17 year old looking kid on street was selling one in a Rolex box, with papers,etc. saying it was hot from a very well known large scale operation nearby (I'll just say the word "corner" is in the retailer's name). He wanted to quickly unload it for a couple hundred dollars. Your typical NYC street hustler wearing lots of "bling" of his own. A $3K watch for $200?
Hmm....
I checked it out and it sure as hell did look real and the papers and box were all very convincing. Then I noticed we were standing next to some fountains and I told him to toss the watch into the fountain and stand near it while I went to the ATM to get the cash. He didn't go for it and smiled
Bruce, some one told me they bought a Rolex made up from orginal Rolex replacement parts. An unathorized Rolex if you will. Just as tempermental as the
the real McCoy. That's sort of a fake Bolex right?
