- Rolex has never manufactured a watch with a see-through case. If you
see a glass-back case on a watch, move on. You’re not looking at a
Rolex.
- Rolex has never fabricated a case or a band with even the smallest
amount of rubber. You know it’s a fake if you feel rubber.
- Skeleton dials display the moving parts of a timepiece. A skeleton
dial may look trendy, but that doesn’t mean it’s a Rolex.
- Oyster Perpetual Rolex watches always have a screwed-back case –
never a pop-up.
- Rolex Oysters are fabricated of stainless steel, gold or platinum.
Chrome or chrome-plate is never used.
- Only men’s full-size Rolex watches have day and date features.
- The case of a Rolex President is platinum, 18-karat yellow or white
gold – never stainless steel or two-tone stainless and gold.
- Rolex watches are not gold-plated – ever. In the quest for how to
identify a Rolex watch; look for either 14 or 18-karat gold.
- Surprise, surprise. Rolex does make a watch with a quartz movement –
the Perpetual Oyster, but be careful before you buy. Quartz movements
comprise fewer than 10% of all Perpetual Oysters. The other 90% are
conventional automatic Rolex movements.
- Rolex is a Swiss company that in years past manufactured watches in
various other countries including the U.S, Mexico, Italy and Venezuela –
but never China. A “Chinese-made Rolex” is a genuine fake.
Things That You Can Do To Protect Yourself:
- Never buy a watch on the street.
- Never buy used Rolex watches from an Internet dealer – unless he also
operates a brick and mortar store situated in a secure, respectable
location, preferably in the United States. A customer always should
always have the option to visit the proprietor’s store and personally
inspect a watch. A used Rolex, like a new one, should always come with a
warranty.
- Never buy Rolex watches in the Far East or Turkey, even if the dealer
has a storefront presence.
