Howitzer 1,974 Posted July 7, 2020 This doesn't look right at all.... https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auction-catalogues/lyon-and-turnbull/catalogue-id-srly10284/lot-0471841e-65b0-4370-8649-abe800aed6c2?utm_source=SR_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=toppicks_test2&utm_term=20200707&utm_content=srly10284_cta 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oris 421 Posted July 7, 2020 Dull bezel indices and a wokky rehaut 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibanez 2,713 Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Insert markers are a stroke dull? But could be just shabby pics.... the bracelet looks a bit second hand too with the misalignment Edited July 7, 2020 by Ibanez 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Howitzer 1,974 Posted July 7, 2020 Thought as much. 6 and 9 indices are too squared off and sharp as well. That's some shitty due diligence by the auction site, although I'm sure they've got a lovely disclaimer to cover themselves. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroDrTime 2 Posted July 7, 2020 Maybe if you contact 'The SaleRoom' you can get a reward. For example, I've sold shoes on Mercari, it's like a Poshmark app. But because I have a history with replica sneakers I'm able to catch frauds on the app that try to sell reps as gen, this is a big deal in the sneaker world, and unfortunately, many people get scammed daily. When I am able to get a sale taken down because it's clearly a replica, that if you have an eye for it, you just know, especially when you pretty much memorize each batch flaws from the leading factories. I will get anywhere from 10-20$ reward, not all the time but sometimes is fine by me! You gotta find a way to save that poor guy or gal that's about to spend 3k on what they think is the genuine article. On another note: that Lot location Edinburgh though it's in Scotland. I actually received my biology degree from UTRGV in Edinburg, Texas hehe. Not significant at all, but kinda moderately interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I already sent them a message suggesting that they may want to get a Rolex AD to check it out, as it doesn't seem quite right. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I already emailed them, more because I think it's really poor form for an auction house (from what I understand The Saleroom just host auctions online from different houses) to allow a patently fake watch to even make it to the auction in the first place rather than as a good deed to prevent a moron from getting fleeced and buying a moody Rolex. Still, if they want to put me on a retainer then please expect many more posts in this section 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroDrTime 2 Posted July 8, 2020 Haha, that's the way! It would be nice to earn some extra scratch by catching replicas, they would really appreciate that I think. Good on you guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wobble44 98 Posted July 8, 2020 Wow that is very worrying. I have actually bid on watches on that auction site before (luckily I didn’t win any!). I will be avoiding completely in the future! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
