buy expensive watches only from the authorised agents and you can't go wrong, buy from any other place and expect it to be a fake.

I only buy fakes. $80 can buy a fake that even the experts will blur without the lens and diseecting the thing. And people pay a few thousand for the same watch. Hehehe

How do you know if a watch is genuine or counterfeit?

Fill a container with water
Soak your watch in the container overnight
Next morning take out the watch
If no water in watch, genuine
If water dew in watch, counterfeit
If watch filled with water, it is rubbish not a watch

Try sending it to the authorised watch dealer and say you wanted maintenance service.

The watch dealer will check the authenticity of the watch - they will cross-reference the serial no. imprinted on the watch with the databases. If it's a fake, they will not proceed with the work.

Murphy's Law... if you got your "genuine" at great bargain, it is a counterfeit :biggrin:
