I bought a black submariner like 4 months ago, bought it used from rolex dealer and all that jazz. Anyway i go to new york city this past week and i am walking up and down canal street and about 50 people ask me if i want to buy a rolex. I didnt take my watch with me on the trip for obv reasons, but one of the guys flashed a watch just like mine so i take a look at at and it looks and feels just like mine. So i get curious to see how close of a fake it is to mine so i haggle with the dude and pick it up for a few hundred( by brother got a cheaper felling fake for like 40 bucks).
I get back to texas and get my watch and CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE, i almost forget which one is my real one. So i take it to the dealer and he cant tell either, he takes it apart and starts telling me how i should be ashamed for buying it and blah blah blah, and tells me never to bring it in the store again, dick.

moral of the story....buy a fake and save yourself 5k
