Tips on Spotting Fake Rolexes - Page 11

You've  never  owned a New pair of shoes worth more than 50 bucks so how would you know. The insoles used in top shoes are a one piece leather but i've never had any being uncomfortable. You have the right support like wearing a hard spenco arch which may feel odd at first but is very comfortable.

If your shoes with hard leather insoles hurt your feet than you're wearing the wrong size. What did you do, tell the truth.Buy some used AE for 30 bucks on ebay that didn't fit just to impress the proles in Podunk? I've been wearing all of the top brands of epensive shoes since before you were born and if any of them sucked I would just say so,

see what I'm saying... just AWESOME...

and this threak is going to DT's in 3, 2, 1 ....

Sorry, but I own many pairs of C&J, Vass, AE, Cheaney, etc.

There ARE a few Rolexes that are both understanded and elegant (plain no bling datejust, vintage oyster perpetual, etc), but I wouldn't say the brand as a whole is like that. If you're wearing a Submariner, Datejust II, Day/Date, anything with bling or anything with a chronograph, etc, it's anything BUT understated.

I bought my 3 Patek's new. As I did with the Rolex watches I own (more than 5 and that's all I'm going to say). I'm done with Rolex. I'm tempted to buy a Pre-Owned Patek Aquanaut because I was a moron and didn't buy it when I had the chance 5 years ago, and now it is 41mm and not 39mm which I prefer.

Most Pateks I have seen in private sales or auctions have held their value. I don't know about mine because I have no interest in selling them. I will eventually give them all away, hopefully to my progeny? I've already given away two Rolex watches to relatives...because I want them to be worn and not collect dust in a drawer. And both were standard models and not rare/difficult to obtain models.

As I said, I don't need a car. I like walking and public transportation is excellent in NYC/London. A car in the city gets beaten up. Do you trust the parking attendant in the local garage? A car depreciates by 30% as soon as you drive it off the lot. As much as I want a supercar, why buy one if I can't drive fast? I'm married with children, have 8% body fat and have a head full of hair. I lead a nice uneventful family life and if I dont buy a Kia, I will wear my Savile Row suits, bespoke shoes, Patek watch and drive a mini van. Just being honest.

You really don't know what you are talking about with regards to shoes. Spend money on good shoes and a good mattress. Because if you are not on your back, you are on your feet. And if you want to live a happy life, take care of your back and your feet. I have no problem admitting that my mattress cost more than a couple of my Rolex watches (individually, not combined).

I think it's disingenuous to say watches hold value.
I am not a watch man, but a new Omega that costs $3000 can be had used for $1500-$2000.
This would be called a disastrous investment with eviscerating depreciation.
If you don't want to suffer from depreciation, buy used. Just like a car.

Exactly! Stop feeding the troll...

Not as disingenuous as implying you are wearing a real Rolex when wearing a fake.

Not necessarily true.  Although I recently traded-in one watch that lost a small amount of value (~5%) over the last ten years, I have another that's nearly doubled what I paid for it.  It depends completely on the brand, model, and the current trends.

Do you even know what a troll is?

I am certainly entitled to that stance that anyone who pays $5000 for watch with a "luxury" logo is a rube.
A forum does not have to be about herd mentality and everyone thinking and doing the exact same thing.

This thread is a win on so many different levels!

Of course you can think what you want, Reevolving. But in this thread, you're being a douche.

Wow, shocker that no one is mentioning rock hard leather inners with doubled soled leather soled shoes?
I meant, comfy as a slipper made from a pillow, right?
