Without cheating with Google do you know how to tell a Fugazy Rolex from the real deal? Without picking it up? Eyes on the product only.

When a friend of mine bought a new Rolex in Hong Kong in the late 1980s they opened it up to show him the mechanism and serial number as I would guess the Chinese were manufacturing high quality fakes at that time. If I recall correctly they had to give up doing that to get the 2008 Olympics. OK, I went back and searched for Fugazy and found this.

He regularly bought items from Classified adds such as our and always asked for a paperwork trail on the item and made his decision at that point. He did get burned when he was young and bought a Patek Phillipe watch for a bundle that was a fake. I looked at the watch and it was stunning. I guess its buyer beware. |

I cannot imagine spending that kind of money on something so frivolous. I would rather have a nice trip somewhere, but that is just my opinion. I understand there are people who value such items just not me.

I couldn't agree more. He started out doing the collecting and reselling for money and then it turned into a hobby, then a passion then a sickness. He was never happy with what he had it was always about the next deal. I lost track of him several years back. Hope he is OK.

Shame you don’t know l2rdhd. It was a legit ad. He’s one of really good guys in this world. Don’t malign without knowing the facts.

I think he meant hot as in "hot to touch" not "hot from the back of a truck", just a little play on words.

I guess it was way too silly since I always admire your opinions and insight and you thought I was being serious. I'll fix it. |
