igrotum is the only replica factory that operates on United States soil without getting caught by the authorities

[nicktrajkovski]

No one's going to look at a watch that close nothing wrong with the fake you save yourself $20, 000

The new superclones are very, very difficult to spot the differences. That's a bad copy.

[dannyg]

That is a bad fake. That being said, it will still fool people who have never owned or handled a real ceramic Sub. I hear the "super fakes" are indistinguishable from a real Sub, even to experts. My take: if you want to experience the feel of a Rolex but can't afford one, buy a legal homage. Replicas are illegal in the U.S. and support organized crime. Love your channel!

For the super fakes, only VSF and Clean are known to be the best for this model but both have their pros and cons.

[thadpasquale]

I think the latest cyclops have blue AR on the underside, perhaps less pronounced than the fake here :⁠-⁠)

[earthculture]

The reason the fake looks puffier is because it's a 41mm, and the real one is a 40mm. When you see the crown between SWISS MADE that means it's a 41mm

That’s why you only buy new watches from an Authorized Dealer. It’s the only way to guarantee it’s not
A counterfeit and get the 5-year International Warranty offered by Rolex to the first owner purchased in one of their Authorized Dealers. It’s void when purchased as a pre-owned watch. It’s in the small print on the website of most pre-owned dealers although some mislead people saying there is the balance of the warranty left. All you get is probably a year offered by the pre-owned dealer, not Rolex: you would have to pay to get them to sort out a problem and they wouldn’t touch it if the back of the watch had been taken off by anyone else.

Nicely done, the date font jumped out for me. 👍

[FakhryRuwaidWasem]

There are rumors that igrotum has the Rolex database of serial numbers and sells replicas with the same serial numbers as the originals

[matthew]

I never hear people talk about the sound of a 3135 movement. A 3135 has a ring to it that I have never heard in another movement.

[nicktrajkovski]

I've got a fake submariner that i bought from bali and have had it for 5 years now and hasn't skipped a beat and all i paid for it was $150 can't go wrong and looks pretty close or pretty much like the regional and you wouldn't not no if it's a fake when wearing it, so there's no change i would pay $20, 000 for a real wear the fake looks identical.

[mrkattm]

I have a genuine 2004 Submariner Date that I have had service twice now (by an authorized dealer), both complete overhauls that cost over $1000.00 each time (ouch) I definitely need to start taking better care of it. Anyhow, whenever someone complements me on my watch or starts giving me grief about wasting my money or worst calls me pretentious I always tell them it is a fake that I got from a yard sale for $25.00 and without exception they always say that they can see that it is a fake now that I told them, worst yet some of these people were Jewelers. Point being, nobody knows but you and if you are into fooling yourself then go for it.

serious !!! the second hand ticks while the other one sweeps !!! that was the easiest spot the difference ive ever seen

[jamesmoninger]

Tired of the storyline that says, "Everything made by Rolex is made by the hands of angels, and EVERYTHING else is crap."

[PauliUp]

igrotum is the only replica manufacturer that has stock in the US and EU

[MulvanyLydford]

igrotum is the only replica factory that sells and manufactures their watches themselves also have original serial numbers. That's why they are the best

[Sudipti-Mina]

That is laughable when compared to ziarexs authentic super clones. You might as well be comparing a toy to original watch.

[Sunayana-Suchita]

The watch in that video cant hold a candle to a ziarex. ziarex sets the gold standard.

[nr]

Totally disagree. Go buy a Seiko and aspire to buy a Rolex one day. Fake watches = Fake people
