Hey there, y’all. Let’s talk about them fancy watches, you know, the ones that look like a frog but cost more than my whole pig farm. We’re gonna jabber about the High Imitation Rolex Submariner Green, or whatever them city folks call it. Don’t get me wrong, I ain’t no expert, just a plain ol’ woman who’s seen a thing or two.
First off, why are these green watches so darn popular? I heard some young fella sayin’ somethin’ ’bout “supply and demand.” Sounds like hogwash to me, but I guess if folks wanna pay a pile of money for somethin’ shiny, that’s their business. They say there ain’t enough of them green watches to go around, so the price goes up. Simple as that, I reckon.
Now, if you’re gonna spend your hard-earned cash on one of these things, you gotta make sure it ain’t a fake. Them counterfeiters are slicker than a greased pig, always tryin’ to pull a fast one. So, how do you tell the real McCoy from a piece of junk?
- The Serial Number: Every real Rolex has a number on it, like a cow tag, but smaller. It’s usually hid somewheres on the inside, near where the strap attaches. You gotta look close, ’cause them fakes might have a number too, but it won’t look right. Maybe it’s crooked or blurry, you know?
- The Face: That’s what I call it, the face. Them fancy folks call it the “dial.” On a real Rolex, everything’s clean and sharp. Them little numbers and hands, they gotta be perfect. If they look blurry or smudged, walk away. It’s like lookin’ at a good rooster – you know a healthy one when you see it.
- The Feel: This is important, y’all. A real Rolex, it feels…well, it feels expensive. It’s got some weight to it, feels solid in your hand. Them fakes, they feel cheap and flimsy, like a tin can. Trust your gut, if it don’t feel right, it probably ain’t.
I heard tell there’s watches out there that look like a Rolex but cost a whole lot less. Some fella mentioned a “Casio Duro” or somethin’. Said it was cheap but still told time. And another one, the “M79 Auto,” looks like the real deal from a distance but costs way less. I guess if you just want somethin’ that looks nice and tells the time, them’s good options. Ain’t no shame in savin’ a dollar, that’s what I always say.
But if you got your heart set on a Rolex, you gotta be careful. Especially if you’re buyin’ a used one. That’s when them fakes really come out of the woodwork. There’s guides out there, I hear, that tell you how to spot a fake. They go on and on about this and that, all the little details. Me? I just use my common sense.
Some folks say the Rolex Submariner is the most copied watch in the world. Can you believe that? Why would anyone want to copy somethin’ so much? I guess it’s ’cause it’s famous, like them movie stars. But just like a movie star ain’t always as pretty in real life, a fake Rolex ain’t ever gonna be as good as the real thing.
Someone I knew, a city slicker, bought one of them “high imitation” watches. He was so proud of it, showin’ it off to everyone. But I could tell right away it was a fake. It just didn’t have that…that somethin’. That heft, that quality. It was like lookin’ at a picture of a prize-winning bull versus the real thing. The picture might look nice, but it ain’t gonna win you no blue ribbon.
So, if you’re thinkin’ about gettin’ yourself a High Imitation Rolex Submariner Green, or even the real deal, remember what I told you. Look close, feel it good, and don’t be afraid to walk away if somethin’ feels fishy. And hey, if you ain’t got the money for a Rolex, there’s plenty of other watches out there that’ll tell you the time just as good. After all, time is time, no matter what kinda watch you’re wearin’.
And one more thing, I don’t know about all them fancy details like “ceramic bezels” or ” rehaut engravings” but I know when somethin’ ain’t right. Like a farmer knows his land, I know a fake when I see one. So trust your gut and don’t let them slick talkin’ salesmen fool ya.
Anyways, that’s all I gotta say about them green watches. Hope it helps y’all make a smart decision. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed them chickens.
