      What was real about a guy wearing a $50-$60,000 watch who's aspiring to get a watch that he couldn't even name until prompted that cost a fraction of what he's wearing on his wrist. Then the other Rolexes of which not one he could even name.
      That piece should have been on a cutting room floor. I bet money is fake and he knows absolutely nothing about washes which is why he couldn't even name another single watch.

    AP looks like the fake ceramic version of a 41mm RO 15400, however time and date ceramic RO is only the 34mm model.
    YM42 is fake, not sure which version of the fake but the dead giveaway is all proportions are off, the lume on hour hand stops too far close to the cannon pinion. Im not sure how we end up w fakes, Sydney CBD and Eastern suburbs on a weekend is filled with people wearing decent watches.

All the APs with Automatic written on it is the older design but i don't see any ceramic models made with that "Automatic" written on it.
