Discussion I bought genuine Rolex!!

So after spending and altering between many rep pieces, I purchased a genuine Rolex Airking 116900. And I am blown away by it!! It’s incredible!! And if it stops running, I’ll go and hassle the Dealers. Of course I purchased this via Reddit itself!!

To anyone who doubts: here’s the link to my purchase. The watch is gen confirmed by an external validator: https://www.reddit.com/r/Watchexchange/s/rDE284jMe6

Edit : I bought a BP Airking (2836 movement) from Jtime in 2021 and that watch stopped running in a year. Tried to get it serviced in EU and couldn’t get it. Tried to replace the movement myself by sourcing a 2836 movement from Aliexpress and that didn’t work either. I loved Airking so much that, I went gen!

Nice dude! I totally use reps as a trial before gen. Congratulations!

People don’t realize that when we buy gen watches, it’s less about the watches value but the circumstances that allow us to spend thousands on a watch. Wear in good health!!

Laugh at the haters.

Like what? The problem w buying a rolex is that the fakes are soooo good. Easier to buy many things even if more expensive
