Alright, alright, let’s talk about them fancy watches, the Rolexs, the Sub-somethin’-or-others. You know, the ones them rich city folks wear. I heard tell there’s a bunch of fakes out there, ain’t worth a dime, so let me tell ya what I know, or what I heard anyways.
How to Spot a Real Fancy Submariner Watch
First off, these Rolex Submariner watches, they gotta feel heavy. Like a good piece of iron, not some flimsy tin can. If it feels light, you know it ain’t the real deal. Them real ones, they got some weight to ‘em, 40 millimeters they say, that’s about… well, I ain’t good with measurements, but it’s a good size, not too big, not too small, just right.
Now, another thing is the serial number. Every real one has a number, like a secret code. It’s gotta be on there, clear as day, not scratched out or lookin’ funny. And it should match up with the papers, if they got papers. I don’t know much about papers, but I hear they’re important for them fancy things.
- Weight: It should feel heavy, like good quality metal.
- Size: They say it’s 40 somethin’ millimeters.
- Serial Number: Gotta be there and gotta be real.
And get this, them fancy watches, they got these little engravings, tiny little marks, all perfect and neat. If they look sloppy or crooked, then it ain’t right. It’s like lookin’ at a good piece of cloth, you can tell if it’s made well just by lookin’ at the seams. Same thing with these watches.
I also heard talk about the movement, the inside part that makes it tick. The real ones, they tick smooth, like butter, not jerky or jumpy. I ain’t never seen the inside of one myself, but they say it’s like a little machine, all tiny parts workin’ together. If it sounds like a rattle trap, then you know it ain’t no good.
Now, where to buy one? That’s the tricky part. I heard there’s places sellin’ high imitation Rolex Submariner watches, sayin’ they’re the real thing but they ain’t. You gotta be careful, real careful. Don’t go buyin’ from some fella on the street corner. Go to a trusted seller, someone who knows what they’re doin’. Someone with a good reputation, like… well, I don’t know any myself, but you get the idea.
And let’s talk about the original order, the ones that come straight from the factory. Them’s the best, they say. But they cost a pretty penny, more money than I’ll ever see in my lifetime. But if you’re gonna spend your hard-earned cash on one of these fancy things, you might as well get the real McCoy, right?
But here’s the thing, some folks, they can’t afford the real thing, so they buy a copy, a replica, they call it. Now, I ain’t sayin’ it’s right or wrong, but if you’re gonna buy a copy, at least make sure it’s a good one. Don’t go buyin’ some cheap junk that’ll fall apart in a week. There’s some out there that look pretty close to the real thing, but they still ain’t the same. It’s like lookin’ at a picture of a flower versus smellin’ the real thing, you know?
And don’t forget the bezel, that’s the ring around the face. On a real Submariner, it should turn smooth and click, not be loose or wobbly. It’s all in the details, see? Them little things are what make it a real Rolex and not just some cheap knock-off.
So, if you’re lookin’ for one of these fancy Rolex Submariner watches, keep your eyes peeled and your wits about ya. Don’t be fooled by fancy talk and shiny things. Do your research, ask questions, and make sure you’re gettin’ what you pay for. And remember, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. That’s what my mama always used to say, and she was a smart woman.
And one more thing, don’t go flashin’ it around if you do get one. Some folks got sticky fingers, you know? Keep it safe and sound, and maybe just wear it on special occasions. Ain’t no need to be wearin’ a fancy watch to go feed the chickens, that’s for sure.
