Cubic Zirconia Decor Ring for her birthday 😉


Is that the one, they removed from the stomach of that Man Eater Croc in Darwin?

They faked the moon landing. They’re faking landing on Mars, a fake Moonswatch is appropriate..

I got a faked ga-2100. A $200 green casioak because it was hot. The ebay seller claimed he didn't know but took it back and never reposted it. I got a real one from the g-shock group.

His wife is an incredibly talented gift giver, not an incredibly talented watch expert.

I think she deserves a big hug for trying.

So my wife couldn’t wait until Valentine’s day so she’s wearing it today. I showed her your posting and with her keen eyes, she also noticed that the pushers on yours seems to be longer as well. Again, hard to judge from a pic and not from having the actual watch but this is something that never crossed my mind!

A+++ to your wife for the awesome gesture and those that sold it to her, karma usually comes around and at a bigger cost too!

I vote heavily towards the OP waking up tomorrow morning with that watch still on, as it should be for many many months forward too, kissing and hugging that wife of his -- and forever burying the knowledge gleaned from this thread.

Go forth in bliss.

assuming his wife only paid a few hundred and not more, I would not say anything and just replace it with an authentic example when possible. That way the intention behind the gift is honored plus you don’t have to wear a fake (which would probably bother me).

Just for all that are wondering: yes there are fakes around. Bought myself a fake Mercury. Very easy to tell in real life as I have others (real ones) to compare.

One difference was even the packaging, which in original shape uses some textured cardboard. My fake used more simple cardboard.

Edit: does it have the Swatch „S“ edged in the middle of the Plexiglass? Does the Lume glow?
