I inherited these Rolexes from my grandpa. Can you tell me if they're genuine.

Typical question in the gen forums. Today one guy asked if his Navitimer with week/day/date pushers is genuine.

 

I told him it's extremely valuable and worth....

I'd like to ask the same question about these now. What are the tell-tale signs? :D

It may be funny here, but you know some shit like this has happened at one point. Some grandkid or widow who knows nothing about watches taking one of these into an AD to have the value assessed after the family members passing.

It was a hypothetical scenario. I personally don't know of anybody who has done this, but something along those lines must have happened before.

It seems that nothing happened. And You have to start somewhere if You want to get somewhere. :)

We don't know the genuity of the watches. So if we... ahem... By-Tor whants to know, that the watches are real Rolexes, he has to do something. For example going to an AD.

Sure. But if You ask me, I would bet that the Rolex with a quartz movement is 100% genuine. :)

Though maybe I'm wrong, as I'm not a big Rolex fan. :D

it could be the pictures but the top two watches have some concerns, there appears to be some imperfections as far as the font is concerned.  The watch on the top right appears to have the "ROLEX" font in Italic and to my knowledge I don't believe Rolex has ever applied that font (it could just be the pictures that make it appear that way).  The bottom right rolex appears to be a version that Rolex produced in white gold, look at the back of the watch and if there are not any stamping in regards to the gold content that could possibly be a giveaway.  This is just my opinion but you are best served to just take them to a pro and have them take a look.  Good luck because if they are real two of them are fairly rare.

These are 90's hand job Rolexes, at best. Grandpa would've needed to up his game for a spit shine.

Aren't these the watches OJ turned over after losing his wrongful death lawsuit with the Goldman family?
