Hahaha, how did u spot its a fake?
I guess its the intention that counts. The AP ROO is i think the most replicated watch ever. There is all kind of replicas out there, and some good ones. Add to that the zillion LE's there is, its a complete chaos.
Wonder how u spotted its a fake.

Watch For 2009
An old friend of mine gave me this for the New Year: Boy am I lucky?...
I don't want to be the bad guy but...
that watch is a replica and not an authentic audemars piguet watch. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I am sure your friend had the best of intentions.

Consequence more than Intention....
Park, VPRegulator has a long-term collection of 'quality' watches so it is surprising that he/she did not spot this fake just by feel alone. The consequence of this thread, irrespective of intention, is that the faking fakers now know what to "improve" fo...
Indeed
I was wondering the same - usually, "is this a fake?" threads get canned right away... this one got a master class... I'm rather amazed VP didn't spot this right away too. As Graham points out, even the feel/weight is enough. Odd. Having said that the arg...

hi, guys. got this article by richard brown from a replica related site, The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak has long been a favorite watch to counterfeit. I have seen examples dating back to 2001 for the Royal Oak Offshore. Back then the state of the art was p...
It does help fakers
afsg, It does help fakers to know what their deficiencirs are. Just looking at pictures is not enough as they need to know the important visual cues to copy. Of course, if they made everything 'perfect' as real pictures, there would be no need to get the ...
