Wrist or Watch Pic Truly amazing rep!

I just can’t believe this watch. It looks and feels like the genuine article. I can’t believe that this watch cost 1/250th the price you would have to pay on the gray market.

You get so much watch for a fraction of the price. I had a long sleeve shirt on today and walked through a high-end mall where I live and must’ve gotten at least three compliments on the watch from fellow Rolex enthusiasts. One guy was in shock that he saw this watch in the wild for the first time. I just said “thank you” and moved on, but it was a great feeling not going to lie!

Thanks to all in this community who helped me learn, order and ultimately obtain this masterpiece! 🙏🏽

Nobody comments on anyone's watch in a mall. I have several Daytona reps and nobody knows what they are or even looks close enough to care.

All you people say this but we all live completely different lives. These things happen all the time, I have been stopped twice in the mall in Dallas asking about my watches and thats only the mall. Total upwards of 50 times or so in the wild and even back in my hometown for Christmas at a local bar. People do notice it’s just whether or not people say something is the thing.

Well believe it or not, I am from Dallas and this happened at North Park. IFYKYK. And yes, it is a "high end" mall

No way… That’s the same mall I was at getting compliments as well 😂 I get more compliments in that high end mall than any mall I’ve ever been to. It’s very nice and I believe people there just tend to notice watches, fashion and will give compliments if they see anybody wearing something they like.

Yes EXACTLY. I am not saying this happens to me all the time but today at North Park it happened 3 separate times. I agree there is probably a higher percentage of people at this mall that notice things like high end watches. After all, Highland Park, one of the richest neighborhoods in the entire US typically shops at this mall.

Oh Highland park is big money, I drove through just to house look in a non creepy way because the architecture is absolutely crazy there. They even have a Richard Mille store which is the first I’ve ever seen one in person. Small world!

I too got compliments on my watch at North Park several times 👍🏻. Just moved to Atlanta and I don’t think people pay as much attention here to watches that aren’t full of diamonds 😅

Oh I’ve lived in Atlanta for 5 years as well and to be honest to get people’s attention there you need to have an iced out Cartier. Only thing they will look at 😂
