This thing, you know, this High imitation Rolex Two-tone Blue Submariner, they say it’s somethin’ else. I seen a lot of shiny things in my time, but this one, they say it’s like the real deal, only cheaper. Official flagship store, they call it. What does that even mean? Sounds fancy.
My grandson, he’s always on that computer, he showed me pictures. Blue and gold, shiny like a june bug in the sun. He says it’s a “Submariner.” Sounds like somethin’ you’d see in the ocean. But folks wear it on their wrist, like a regular watch.
Now, I don’t know much about fancy watches. I had a Timex once, lasted me twenty years. This Rolex thing, it’s supposed to be special. But there’s so many fakes out there, you gotta watch out. They look the same, feel the same. But some are just junk.
My grandson, he told me some things to look for. He’s a smart one, that boy. Always readin’ and learnin’.
- Weight: He says the real ones, they got some heft to ’em. Like holdin’ a good, solid piece of metal. Not like those cheap ones that feel like plastic. He said something like 40 millimeters. What’s a millimeter? I don’t know. But it’s 1.57 inches, that I understand.
- Numbers: He says look close at the numbers. They gotta be just right, not all crooked or blurry. The real ones are clear as a bell.
- That little bubble: There’s a little bubble thing on the glass, over the date. He says that’s gotta be just right, too. Magnifies the date, he says. Some fakes, that bubble is just plain wrong.
But even if you know all that, it’s still tricky. These crooks, they’re gettin’ good at makin’ these fakes. They copy everything, even the little box it comes in. Even use that word “Swiss”, means it comes from far away I think.
I remember, one time, my neighbor, she bought a “gold” necklace from a fella at the flea market. Turned her neck green in a week! Same thing with these watches, I reckon. You gotta be careful who you buy from.
This High imitation Rolex Two-tone Blue Submariner, it’s a pretty thing, I’ll give it that. But pretty ain’t everything. You want somethin’ that’s gonna last, somethin’ that’s worth the money.
This official flagship store thing, they say you can trust them. But how do you know? How do you know it’s the real thing? It’s a puzzle, that’s for sure. I guess you gotta do your research. Ask around, see if you have friends who know it well.
I heard folks talk about buying stuff online. They say you can buy anything on that internet. These watches, too. Maybe that’s where this official flagship store is. But it makes me nervous. Buying something you can’t touch, can’t feel. How do you know it’s real? You know what I mean? It’s scary.
My grandson, he says it’s safe. He buys things online all the time. But he’s young, he knows about these things. Me, I like to see what I’m buyin’. I like to hold it in my hand, feel the weight of it.
If I was gonna buy one of these High imitation Rolex Two-tone Blue Submariner watches, I’d be mighty careful. I’d want to see it up close, feel it, look at those numbers real good. And I’d want to buy it from someone I trust.
This world’s full of tricks and traps, you know. Especially when it comes to money. People tryin’ to make a quick buck, sellin’ you somethin’ that ain’t what it seems. It’s like those folks selling magic beans. You remember that story?
So, if you see this official flagship store, just remember what I said. Be careful. Look close. Don’t be fooled by the shine. Make sure you are buying something real, not a fake.
This High imitation Rolex Two-tone Blue Submariner, it might be a nice watch. But a real Rolex, that’s somethin’ else. That’s a watch that’s gonna last a lifetime, maybe even longer. That’s a watch you can pass down to your kids, your grandkids.
But these fake ones, who knows. They might fall apart in a year, maybe two. Then what have you got? Nothin’ but a piece of junk. And you’re out all that money.
So, be smart. Be careful. Don’t let anyone fool you. That’s all I’m sayin’. That’s my advice about this whole Rolex thing.
