Rolex watches are undoubtly the king (or queen) of all branded watches and a status symbol. If you are one of the proud owner of a Rolex Watch, you must be rich with lots of money (No, you don’t get rich by steeling a Rolex Watch). Rolex watches are among the top brands. I don’t think I have seen a watch looking better than a Rolex watch. There is sharp and trendy Submariner and the classic Oyster. There is Rolex Mens Datejust and the Daytona which are among the top Rolex Watches for Men (Of course you may have your own choice).

The fame and popularity of Rolex Watches has given rise to another problem – Fake or Bogus or Duplicate Rolex Watches. Yes, Rolex watches are one of the most copied watches in the world.

Let us now understand how to know or tell if a Rolex Watch is fake or genuine:

Rolex Watch: How is it made

How to Identify a Fake Rolex Watch

1. Take a close look at the second’s hand. It should be sweeping and not ticking. If it is ticking, it is surely a fake Rolex watch because a genuine Rolex second hand sweeps around in one continuous motion. Many of the fake Rolex watches have lately started using “continuous motion” technology. Look for following “Rolex Watches Fake Identification” rules.

2. Using a “jewelers loop” look for the small engraved crown at the 6 o’clock mark on the crystal. This mark on a genuine Rolex watch is almost impossible to spot with the naked eye. Most fake Rolex watches are not able to replicate this mark or crown.

3. Genuine Roles watches have the word “Rolex” and its serial number engraved at 6 O’clock under the crystal between the crystal and the dial. Even Fake ones may have this feature but they cannot engrave it. Most fake Rolex watches will have normal prints.

4. The newest model of Rolex watches have an added model number engraved at the end of the watch end-link and two tiny Rolex crowns. The fake ones may not have these or even if they have, they cannot replicate it as the original.

5. Most genuine Rolex watches are heavier than their fake counterparts.

6. Most genuine Rolex watch will cost over $500, even the used ones. Anything below $500 could be a fake.

7. Check following to spot a fake rolex:

"Rollex" in place of "Rolex"embossed on it.

"Made in China" sign.

"Genuine Replica" or "Rolex Replica"

You can buy a genuine Rolex watch from an authorized Rolex Dealer by paying full price or you can also get the best deal of eBay with better price and discount.
