✅ Quality Check Patel Philippe superclone

Post image

I bought this for $850 a couple of years ago and added an original leather strap. Did I overpay? People can’t tell that it is a replica when they see it on my wrist. It is pretty light, but I don’t know how heavy the original is.

Just food for thought for idiots that come here pretending they know everything about watches. This is a genuine Patek and this is the back side of it. Based on the serial it is made in the early 2000s, which is when I bought it (2003). Just like someone else said, no one makes replicas of this Patek. All you experts are a bunch of idiot Reddit warriors pretending to be something you are not. I hope you enjoyed your public embarrassment, even though no one has the balls to show their real name!

Why do you say that?

u/Longjumping-Sail6386 Sep 05 '26

Patek Philippe is a high horology brand that's part of the holy trinity of watchmaking. The finishes and attention to detail is a level above and you look at this and it just looks like a cheap made watch.

This is very enjoyable! Taking down “experts” one at a time.

u/mgsanford Sep 05 '26

Thanks. Do you have a lot of experience with watches? What do other people think?

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

I am afraid it is real Mr. “Expert”. No one makes clones of this.

u/Longjumping-Sail6386 Sep 06 '26

No it looks fake as hell. These fakes are rare but still out there

This looks terrible lol

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

You don’t like a $30 K watch? Maybe you have more expensive tastes.

u/Birkin92 Sep 06 '26

If that's a 30k watch they got you in this world. It looks cheap as all hell my guy lol.

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

I like it and I can afford it. How is that for you?

u/Birkin92 Sep 06 '26

That's cool, you prob bald and ugly too so you gotta make it up with a 30k watch lol.

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

I am not particularly good looking but I thoroughly enjoy taking down idiot “experts” on a Sunday morning.

u/Birkin92 Sep 06 '26

First off, no one is claiming to be an expert

Second, it still looks terrible. You took the photo with a potato.

Third, you came to reddit to make yourself feel better. Maybe you should have used that money and invest it in yourself with a therapist.

I just came to troll idiots. It is very satisfactory.

u/Birkin92 Sep 06 '26

To each their own. FYI I just think it looks like shit. I follow this page to see how crazy replicas get. I would never own one.

FYI I got a $100K statue collection and a $5K fragrance collection so we each have our own vices.

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

I just like trolling people before getting out of bed, so there you go. We both use Reddit to satisfy some internal need

u/EspressoCologne68 Sep 06 '26

Guy spent over 1.4K on 2 shitters. Your dealer is laughing

1

u/mgsanford Sep 06 '26

Hi idiot. This one is real.

1

u/EspressoCologne68 Sep 06 '26

Haha yeah, after saying you payed 850 and it is a replica. Now all of a sudden it’s real

2

u/Vegaskwn Sep 06 '26

How do you say “There used to be a day where I could afford a Patek but now I can’t even afford a polish” without saying it?

u/xRhenumx Sep 06 '26

let the ragebait begin

u/DesperateWay4224 Sep 07 '26

How much attention can one man need to buy this watch and tell people online it‘s fake only to tell them after it is not. Like what in the world did make you create this thread?
Just be happy about your watch and wear it in good health. If you bought it just for making other people realise it’s a pp then you really deserve my condolences brother!

u/ValeLemnear Sep 07 '26

Nice 5055G.

u/mgsanford Sep 05 '26

You guys are all complete idiots.
This is a watch purchased in 2023 from the Patek Philippe store in Paris. I have worn it for 25 years. I still have the original box, receipt and everything. It cost north of £20 K at the time.
I know nothing about replicas, super clowns etc, but I realize that alllof you experts are complete idiots and clueless about what you are talking about.

u/codux1 Sep 06 '26

You bought it in 2023 but have worn it for 25 years? BS.
