Help with a watch!
Discussion
Hello Gents,
I was wondering if I could elicit some help.
I recently came into possession of a watch that claims to be a Rolex Oyster Date Precision.
However, to my untrained eye, it looks very much like a fake, mainly because the Rolex symbol has fallen off the face of the watch.
I've taken some photos (albeit shoddy phone camera photos with added caffeine induced shakyness) and I was wondering if anybody could confirm it's a £5 Turkey special or not.




Also, I didn't get a picture, but there is no Rolex Symbol on the windy bit, which I thought there should be.
Thanks,
Milk

I would suggest it's a fake.
1) No modern Rolex looks like this watch. The case design would suggest a vintage watch but:
2) No vintage Rolex looks like that and has a display back with a rotor decorated like the one in your pic
3) The fact the Rolex logo has fallen off is not an indication of a fake. I have seen a few high-end pieces where applied indices have detached themselves so this does occasionally happen.
Do a google for 'Rolex Oyster Date Precision' and you should get some pics of what they should look like
