Who isn’t familiarized with the brand named Rolex? I don’t think there is a person who has no idea what Rolex Houston is. All the watches from this category are a great example of style, elegance and class. But the downside to this is that it isn’t a brand for just everyone. The Rolex watches are dedicated mostly to those who are rich and can afford them. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you cannot be the owner of a Rolex even if you are not filthy rich. Try the pre-owned watches that can be bought in excellent conditions and at great prices.
Due to its exclusivity and incredible popularity, the Rolex watches are extremely wanted by counterfeiters. And the people who offer fake watches have become better and better at their work because now it is pretty hard to distinguish a fake watch from a real one.
Genuine
The real Rolex watches have a unique number that is placed between the housing lugs on the position of 12-hour. The number refers to the model, manufacturer and the year. All the original watches have screw on case and the case is made of 14-18 k gold/silver. Never cheap coating!
Fake
The real watches don’t have a transparent case. Don’t get fooled even if you see the crowns engraved into parts. If there is a clear case, then the watch is not original. You need no additional evidence if your watch has a made in China mark (54 percent of the counterfeit hours are seized in China). Besides a Rolex Houston model that offers a clear image of the sea dwellers, the rest does not include a model.
Crown
The engraved crown is the main thing that gives counterfeiters a really hard time. This is located below the six o’clock element and it cannot be reproduced exactly. They usually tend to make the crown bigger, showing imperfections in the lines (as compared to the very tiny ones) that are copied from the original one.
Cyclops
In the case of the genuine clocks, the Cyclops has an increased date by 2.5 times. Not the same thing can be said about the fake ones that are not able to comprise the same effect. In addition to this, don’t forget about the hologram of the corona. If you observe it from different angles and with various types of lights you will see the difference. In the case of the fake one, the hologram of the crown doesn’t give the right reflection.
Taking into account that technology becomes more intricate day by day, this list is not accurate. However, these tips should be able to help you differentiate a fake Rolex from a genuine one. Remember that there are 3 reasons to buying a Rolex watch that has been used and is now offered for purchase.
Just like a good wine, a Rolex watch gains more value with age. So if it is older it gains more value. Since Rolex watches are made following a strict and extremely rigorous process, their capacity to work extremely well even after years of usage is amazing. If, of course, they receive the correct maintenance. You receive a Rolex at an extremely affordable price with the same quality.After purchasing them, jewelers can do the following things to the watches the have bought:
Lubricate, polish and refurbish every piece in order to eliminate scratches, dust, blemishes or the moisture that might have gathered around it. Furthermore, they can adjust it in order to provide a precise time-keeping and can fit it with sapphire crystals that are resistant to scratches or with a new parabolic. This way you can be sure of the fact that you will receive a Rolex Houston that looks and works fantastically!
