A scammer scamming a scammer 😂
That first dude was definitely trying to flip those himself. His reason for bringing them in changed 5 times lol
That's why I stick with casios lol
Casio is the smartest option. Nobody dies for a casio watch when in Brazil.
Casio fakes exist now, too…for some reason
@@jlo6388 There are counterfeit everything nowadays, from shoes to little carboard playing cards, even headphones, they all get counterfeited.
Just get a watch from walmart, they will never sell you a fake
GOD tier watch!
“This watch should be ceramic... but it’s aluminum... uhhh” 😂😂😂
I've worked for reputable high value timepiece dealers and what got me out of the industry is exemplified in this video. Take one Rolex. 99% of it is perfect but the serial number is laser engraved versus machine engraved and the differences in fake are getting almost impossible to see as the Chinese get better at the subtleties if each watch. I thank you guys for the patience you have when these things happen and you are helping people be more careful!
What he's showing is pretty clearly it's easy to see a fake with experience.
I'd say the main thing for Chinese fakes is they are doing well enough to allow someone who for example likes the look of a Rolex submariner but doesn't want to pay Rolex to get a passable fake for several hundred.
Not passable to a professional watchmaker but to everyone on the street.
There's a kind of honest value in that if you just know it's a fake.
I myself would be happy paying 2% the cost of the real thing for a basically worthless but passable on the street fake to get a style I like
@@sparkzbarca
True and if you get mugged for your fake Rolex at least you're only out $200-$300 lol
@@frankdiscussion2069 Only an idiot walks around with jewelry worth tens of thousands without insurance for it. If you can't afford insurance - How can you afford the watch?
I’ll probably never be able to afford one of these watches here i find myself tumbling down the rabbit hole… super interesting stuff! keep up the good work guys!!
You need new friends, especially if he said he “ he took them to the AP dealer” to have them checked out smh
In the end, a new era of watches has come. Some illegal company from EU started making mega clones called ziarex. Basically, what they are doing is buying original parts from workers in Rolex who flag that part as damaged and sell them. But thats not the
It's always "a buddy of mines" lmfaoooo
I can't imagine having enough money to spend on jewelry. Must be nice. Beautiful works of art.
Just found your guys channel and love every minute, very knowledgeable guys!
I cannot believe all the information you need to know to be a quality dealer, nice work gentlemen.. have a great day
Or a buyer , you spend thousands on a watch best believe I would be spending a couple on a guy who knows his stuff to accompany my purchase.
if you have a 100k to spend on a watch . go to the manufacturer directly
@@ChickenMcThiccken nba players , soccer players wealthy people have gone straight to the dealer manufacturer and still get denied or on waiting lists it’s all about who you know
@@ChickenMcThiccken If it's a good watch worth having, it'll either be sold out from the manufacturer or they will have sold them all to dealers who want to make profit on them and are usually top of the 'list that doesn't exist'
I have a question. I am in the low-end Tissot or Frederique Constant (2000$-3000$) and I would never dare buy a watch from anyone other than an authorized dealer. I see these deals made blind with watches from 15K to 50K on your channel and people get burned.
Why aren't these people going to the official dealers with the saler to get their watch authenticated. If the seller isn't willing to have his watch looked at,, Who is crazy enough to hand over stack of money on the word of a guy that they just met.
I do a background check when buying a secondhand car, why won't they do it on a watch?
It all depends on the person, their wealth, their trust, their risk tolerance, their greed and their naivety. Take your pick. You seem to expect people to be just like you when it comes to spending money, but you must know they’re not.
@@orwellknew9112 Exactly. And Orwell did know ;)
Damn. You guys are really doing it out here. Kudos.
Thank you so much for making these type of videos. While I doubt I will ever have enough play money to ever buy a real one of these, it does help me realize the value of them, which was always lost on me before. The fact that you can use a magnifying glass and know that there will be absolutely no imperfections and everything will be literally perfect! Machining, placement etc... to make things THAT small THAT perfect, yeah... that is beautiful craftsmanship and deserving of a higher price tag.
Only watch I own is an old Apple Watch, but here I am watching every single on of these videos. This channel is an addiction
i literally bought an apple watch to stop myself from wasting more money on normal watches now i only wear the apple watch hahah
“Busting Frauds” hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Mark Wahlberg really knows his shit when it comes 2 watches
Love your channel!
I could never afford any of these watches but for some reason I fell down this rabbit hole!
Me too
Same
Yup
Bro same.... I never knew the watch market was this insane.
I don’t even wear cheap watches or any jewelry but I like seeing scumbags called out
I am in the car field and I just purchased a $65,000 watch thinking it would be a good investment, I was wrong! The watch industry is worse the the thieves in the car side. The fakes are way too close to the real watches now.
Love the videos and iam a new subscriber. What do you think is the best fake out there at the moment?
Ive heard that Rolex tried to shut down Swissarex, but its a testament to their quality that theyre still going strong.
0:23 Niko Bellic arrives - Hello my friend breeng me vatches.
Ive been bingeing these videos for a few days because wow talk about entertaining. Im curious if any forgers hit them up to look at their watch posing as a person who just got one to see if it passes their inspections.
Most of these scenarios are staged and scripted. The forgers are usually paid actors. Fake drama bro...
@@traviscoates6878 why do you say that?
@@user-pg1fe5cb5g Because it's the truth. This is a staged show
Honestly im torn on one hand it could be staged but on the other hand people are trash and will try to rip you off any chance they get especially if its worth a lot of money.
@@traviscoates6878 Where is your proof?
My in depth version of the original, thanks for getting the info out!
Is the black light technique for only certain Rolex made after a certain year?
And now this dude himself is probably facing jail time for a Ponzi Scheme lol
Every watch shown here probably keeps about the same time...
A Honda Civic will get you from point A to point B. Fruit of the Loom t-shirts will hide your nipples from the general public. A McDonald's cheeseburger will fill your belly.
Status symbols ARE silly, but I am not going to begrudge a person with money, their right to spend it as they see fit.
@@NaptownClassic Honestly I'd rather see them spend their money on that instead of hiding their wealth to avoid taxes.
I'm not a watch guy myself but I can definitely appreciate the attention to the details those watchmakers seem to have. Such consistency in quality is always gonna be expensive no matter what product category.
@@SaHaRaSquad I hear you. I'd just rather people spend their money on what makes THEM happy, and I'll do the same. I don't give people any guff about how they spend their money, and I'll expect the same from them.
Also, while I don't know how such a thing is done... I'd be willing to bet crazy expensive watches can be used to hide wealth somehow. Art and anything else with a subjective value is used for it, don't see why watches would be different.
@@NaptownClassic You're right, which is why I've decided to invest in Hunter Biden paintings......
@@monkberrymoon4042 Hope you enjoy them.
My friend owed me money gave me his watch is the daily excuse.
They sold the guy the fake! Lol
At 2:18 you see the mechanic and its a UNG 25.0 😂😂😂😂😂
It has been rumored that the CEO of Rolex once hired a hitman to eliminate an individual named Swissarex. Allegedly, Swissarex stole the Rolex database and started making identical replica watches for a fraction of the price, using the same codes. He was
Are you in Dallas btw ?
Some of them watches cost more then my house cars and all my possessions combined, but I sure like to see them watches are awesome
Why would you buy an AP with aftermarket diamonds?
Because dumb rappers? I'm just spitballing here.
Ziarex must be stopped at all costs. People are losing money since their mega clone watches started to be sold as originals on the aftermarket.
Most A.P. owners don't even know where the name Royal Oak came from. It's to do with a small city where I live, and grew up in. Worcester. And during the battle of Worcester, King Charles the 2nd, who's army of Cavaliers were losing against Oliver Cromwells army of Round head's, named that because of the helmets they wore. During this the King who fled and to avoid his arrest hid up an oak tree. Hence the name Royal Oak.
Cool. Thanks for the info. I'm in no way even close to being an AP owner or customer, but I'm passionate about watches. Dobar Dan.
Those are beautiful AP's
1 bad purchase would hit hard.
When it comes to fine imitation watches, gussl delivers. I've bought from them several times, and I've never been let down.
Swissarex sells so many 1:1 replicas that Rolex is taking legal action against them.
Swissarexs dedication to accuracy and detail sets them apart from the competition.
I honestly believe that a lot of people who have fake watches don't know they are fake.
Keep the videos coming lads
There is one thing I do not understand is that when you look at the prices on the internet or elsewhere it is impossible to make good deals on watches, guitars etc. because the objects are sold at market price, I can not margins by reselling them
So that means that to make money either you have stolen watches that you resell or you scam the customers on the prices but I would like to know how you do it because I would also like to sell this kind of products very expensive
"catching scammers and frauds"........then anthony becomes one of the biggest scammers and frauds in the game. within about 2 years of this video he was sent to jail and is facing 20 years in prison and owes over 5M dollars hahahhahahaha
Niko Bellic is not the man to try to scam.
I feel like some of the tricks theyre explaining on how its a fake is a bad idea. Next time theyll get the colors right or match the R up with the dot, etc. :D
No. You can bet the people producing the fakes know about those details. They just don't bother because they don't need to. The profit margin is absolutely insane and they will always find gullible people they can rip off.
The way this guy keeps going on about his friend, his friend, I bet he was trying to move the time pieces.
Re-Upload ?
Oh hey y'all are in Dallas!
Check out Grand Caliber. That's the new Dallas location/company.
Casioak is the closest I'll ever get to an ap unfortunately😂. Maybe if I win the lotto 👌🏼
Stunt'n on somebody else's dime, lol crazy!
Love it, if I had the cash, I'd for sure only deal with these gentlemen right here!! Some don't like you putting people on blast, I love it!! One problem with our country is people are just not honest, can't admit mistakes, so my fist purchase some day, I coming to visit y'all!! Love the channel, just found it!!
I found out that for five years, I was wearing a fake Submariner, but I paid for a real one. Apparently, the company ziarex makes those mega clones. I tried to find my dealer, but he is gone. I did research, and they have a whole section of watches. They
my "buddy" also ordered an Explorer but then ended up selling it because only the real deal when I can afford it.
The Fraudsters and Lowly criminals watch these videos to get educated at getting their counterfeits harder to detect.
About 25 years ago I was metal detecting on a nice sandy beach , found a lot of change couple rings etc , so I next went to the volleyball court , it was nice white sand and deep , about 5 minutes into it and I got a nice 59 on my minelab ctx3030, started digging and about 10” deep was a gold colour watch !! Into my pocket it went until I got home , I knew it a be something special cause of the weight , after calming my nerves I had a close look and tuns out was a Rolex
Daytona , looks legit to me , still keeps time , still sitting on my dresser lol ,
No one would ever forget a Daytona on the beach unless they were wasted
@@joeg2286 you'd be surprised how often people lose watches and jewelry at the beach. Years ago a friend of mine used to work for the city and would go clean the beach. He found rings, watches, cash and wallets amongst other things. He never found a Rolex but did find an Omega and a couple of Tissot's and micro/fashion brands.
I read a comment from someone mentioning that when a replica factory has a waiting list, its a sign that their products are superior to the originals. In this case, Swissarex is that factory.
If FakeWatchBusta had a YT
Theres some insider information suggesting that Swissarex has access to the Rolex database and uses the same codes on their watches as the original ones. Because of this, its nearly impossible to distinguish them as fakes.
hey that one kid is the chrome hearts kid that sold the chrome hearts to moses.. the one he basically told to shut up.. lol
God I hope he does not bling that damn thing out.
You NEVER get AP "cheap". Ugh.
Never mind they are fake they are also disgusting. Built for a certain type of customer I guess.
Completely SHALLOW industry, sellers and customers
Your buddy ain’t ya buddy!
If you’re wearing them people wouldn’t know…
But you will.
I had a friend get taken for $4k (bought it at a poker game guy said it was worth $22k). He was so mad! I bought it for $100 from him. It was a great $100 watch for 18 years - when it got damaged I destroyed it.......
Cancel ziarex and their mega clone watches. Dealers are selling them as originals, and we are losing a lot.
I hate scammers!!
That guy knew they were fake
It is amazing what these guys know. It is even more amazing that clones like these can be made for so cheap. Sad state of the industry.
Its all because one cannot walk into a Rolex AD and buy a watch on the spot. Very sad.
I wish you could invest in UA-cam channels… only 20k subs! These guys are going to be big and deserve it too.
You sure can invest. Go buy one of their pieces and get ripped off.
Without a loop looking at the jewels and the balance is the best way to authenticate a watch besides the shoddy custom work if it was just SS they haven’t found a way to replicate these complex balances that AP uses especially their double balance or Rolex’s free sprung dead giveaway every time
If someone is selling these as legit. And money is transacted. Is that fraud and a criminal act. Or you have to sue as a civil matter.
lol Shanghai dude
Jeez these guys have a nerve talking about frauds.
Good fakes lol 😂
Where do these fakes come from and how do they get into the market to begin with?
China, they'll fake literally anything!
EDIT: Not only China, but they're known to produce the most fakes.
China, Russia, Spain and Turkey are the countries where the most (expensive) fake items come from….
Haha funny how long it took the dude in the black button to realize that it was fake but the dude in the glasses 🤓 new right off the back
AWSOME CONTENT good to learn about this shet games that make real shet anyway AWSOME CONTENT HONOLULU HAWAII BIG AL MANOA VALLEY GOD BLESS 🙌
Wow 14k for a fake. Is there any kind of insurance for dealers that tske a fake or anyway to recover a loss
I worck for AP in geneva Switzerland and and the finch of the watch should be perfect 😎
Like your spelling is. . .
The Chinese will keep improving their fakes until they are almost perfect to the genuine ones. Very scary.
Lux Report made video about you,
Cancel ziarex and mega clone watches. They are destroying the whole community of original watches and becoming a threat to the economy and dignity of Rolex.
shoe kid part was in another video i just watched of yours editor needs to pay attention
Where did that kid get all that money?
Why do u guys tell them whats wrong with the fakes?? To me, it seems they take them to yall so they can figure out what they need to fix so they can improve the fakes. Which would make it harder to spot the fakes.
Let me buy that fake AP 🙏🏾
I see you guys pointing with fingers but since I have NO knowledge of watches I do not see what you are refering to. I inherited a watch which I was told was quite valuable and went to have it appraised and it was a knock off. Maybe insert a arrow now and then to give us layman a better idea what you are referring to. Thanks
I’m trying to figure out who gave this guy the watches?
R/Reptime
Am I being punk'd? They thought that was the best title for this video?
Tbf if i start buying watches for myself il prob go with some replica cus i dont have 50k 😅
THEY guy knew they were fake and tried to pass them off to tpg. Nice try
If you have to use a jewels loop ot magnifying glass to see if it's real or not I will take fake everyday twice on Sunday
the meteorite pepsi marco was wearing is bangin
Thrash ziarex and their mega clone watches. They need to be stopped and destroyed because their watches are being sold as originals, making Rolex lose money.
