[Identify] My great uncle’s barber passed down this poorly-done sketch of a watch to me, is it legit? (alien.top)

Hey guys, new account here to ask the question, I ~~got a high-priced escort to distract him and took it while he was out~~ was given this watch by my friend, is it legit? He makes about 30k a year plus tips but I’ve seen this model go north of 1.2 milli online, did I strike gold?

I’m going to tell you all I’m just curious about the make and model but we all know as soon as you tell me what it is this suckers going to the pawn shop down the road and I’m gonna ask for whatever the highest priced one on eBay is currently going for, screw sentimental BS and all that lol.

We've gone full circles: even this joke isn't authentic.

Looks legit but get this to a dealer for service. The crown is missing.

The inverse 3 might make it a collectible 1 of 1

Idk man, it looks sketchy to me

For sale?

[–] scryptbreaker@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Will trade for Sub / Speedy

Bracelet and second hand look like service parts. But otherwise that. Good to go 😄

Nice. I haven't seen a Rolmega in the wild in forever

Lmao sooo funnyyyy

[–] Educational-Title761@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Not only is this whole story sketchy why is the three backwards? Rolex doesn’t do that.

[–] OkMarsupial4514@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

V clean dial. Beautiful use of negative space

[–] Redditroactively@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Has no one noticed the backwards 3? Obviously a counterfeit.

[–] shiggism@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Good lord this is a low effort shitpost

[–] liizio@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Spacing on the minute indices looks off, obviously a redial

[–] beepingjar@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Nope, he has Alzheimer's.

[–] Babaraul@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That aftermarket bracelet gives me pause, and the inverted 3 has not been documented on this model. Also the eraser marks make me think the dial has been refinished.

[–] Peach_Mediocre@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

3 looks weird. No cyclops. Fake as fuk. Great uncles barber strikes again

Cannon moment or Sketch moment
