    Thanks for posting this video. I agree that the quality of the top fakes today is insanely good and you really need to know your stuff if you are not buying from an AD even then there is a risk. I have bought several replica watches and do so without guil

    Great video. A couple of additional points:
    1. When you hold the watch side-on you can see on the bracelet the openings on the links where the pins go in are much too bulky.
    2. The screws on the back of the individual bracelet links are clunky and poorly made, they are not fine enough and are not screwed in as far as the original.
    3. On the face at the bottom the original says S - Swiss Made - S, the fake only says Swiss Made. I've seen other Bulgari fakes and have never seen this faked correctly.
    4. The crown is also too big and clunkier than the original, although if you don't know the original you probably won't be able to tell.
    5. And a small point - to my knowledge there was never a Scuba with a white face ;)

    Thank you for the video. For the past few months, I have been trying to figure out if a CH35S that I came across was genuine or not. After numerous online searches based on appearance, dial, and caseback markings, I could not find a single image that looked like the model I had (dial color, hands, case and bezel color, etc.) At first, I thought it may have been a mod where a watch maker took pieces from a couple of different broken models and put them together into a single working piece after seeing that the dial was labelled "Titanium" and the caseback was stamped "Aluminum". Just today, I came across an image online where someone was selling wathces that looked identical to the piece I have, and they were marketed as "AAA Master Replica". Now I am trying to determine if I should get rid of all of the fugazzi branding and build it into a custom mod piece, or just smash it to pieces and throw it all away. Your video has me curious if they at least did use an ETA movement in this "master replica"

    Hi, to adjust the bracelet in this model I need to unscrew the screws or pus the pins? Tried both but all is very tight and I don't want to damage anything.

    • @vintagewatchhunter
      @vintagewatchhunter  2 роки тому

      Yes, if there are screws on both sides, one side is a bar with threads on the inside the other is the screw that threads in. If your watch is real, I would just have a watchmaker do it. If you end up scratching or damaging the screw head, it would be quite expensive to replace and lower the value of your watch enough to make it worth your time to consult a professional.

    • @vintagewatchhunter
      @vintagewatchhunter  4 роки тому

      They were sourced online. I cant remember as it was a while ago, but you should definitely vet your seller, really look at all of the photos closely, match them to others online, and make sure you have a photo of the movement. Only way to buy a luxury watch.
      I also recommend taking it to a watchmaker for inspection immediately after receiving it if it's a big purchase for you.

    Not sure but u didn't mention all versions of this watch. Gold, gmt, chronograph, plus plastic and steel bracelet, the oscillating weight on real version is decorated with bulgari I would never buy any high end or collectible watch without examining stamping marks and scrutinizing movement also prob just a cheap glass not sapphire lens.
    There is also the newer 300m version would be helpful to do side by side shots in video.

    • @vintagewatchhunter
      @vintagewatchhunter  3 роки тому +1

      The only real way to tell is to remove the case back and look at the movement. Otherwise, it can be really difficult. A watchmaker will charge you anywhere from $30-75 to open the watch and give you their opinion. They of course will not guarantee anything, but if a watchmaker looks at the movement and says you're good to go, you probably are.
