    I'm in the camp that all red rangers are fake/franken/redial however you want to describe them. This one in particular, seems on the worse end of that spectrum with brighter red (most are a deeper red) and obvious differences in text weight and thickness and printing consistency.

    I agree. In my experience there is no such thing as a real red ranger. I've even seen one in blue, so another color fake to look out for.

    I suspect the whole watch is fake looking at the rear engravings and bracelet. I've owned three Ranger's in the past and did some extensive research 4 years ago.

    Saw these last night at the Christmas Market in Toronto! In hindsight I’m disappointed I didn’t grab one for 12.99 :unsure:

    This is definitely fake. I’ve been collecting various Ranger references over the years and there were never any red rangers. The hands are also a giveaway as the lume on real rangers doesn’t extend that far down to the center post.

    Here are some legit examples for you viewing pleasure. One or two need me to install correct sweeps, but these are all good examples.
