You really are the worst kind of snob and I don't even think you're a real person.

I'm going to go and post something in the Lounge about you because I'm a bitter little fella with very little to look forward to in a likely miserable life yes

I'm guessing the local nursery might have a few 3yr olds that could give it a go. Not sure how accurate it will run afterwards, but your response to any critisism could be "But I thought of the Children" smile

If you look at it VERY closely where it says "Swiss Made" you can tell it`s a fake, not that I care because people who wear the genuine ones are vacuous, flash, try hards who lack integrity, hang on, I`m getting confused!

What you need are some BMW CSL parts plastered all over it, that should do the trick. Just look up the serial number, I'm sure your local BMW AD would be most obliging. Besides, who actual cares if it functions? It's the name on the dial that matters.

careful guys you might be accused of being arrogant or a snob ( both of which by the way I am ....well more arrogant than snob, i quite like some poor people ) I just want to make it clear once again that it wouldn't make any difference to me if it had Casio on the dial its all about the way it looks

People like you make me sick, how do you know whether you like poor people? and why have you been speaking to them? or do you just like the way some of them look too?

Personally I'd take it to a AD to get the movement checked - am fairly certain it should have a 'sweeping' second hand?

The other thing that bothers me is the case - it appears to be some gold plated Chinese tat and not a genuine Rolex case?

Never mind, your Dad certainly had good taste......

Lovely!

Sometimes I wish my Submariner was fake so nobody thinks I'm a snob.

I can tell its fake because you dont have the Porsche steering wheel in the background whilst being adorned with the Pierre Cardin shirt cuffs, enhancing the thought process of the reading trying to make them think you are loaded..... hehe

Looks like a quartz fake. I mean, they can't even spell "Automatic" correctly.
