Glenn there is no one here that I trust more than you.
Please tell Michelle that the best way to check a Rolex watch is, to look @ the second
hand. If its not smooth. I recall it makes 4 moves thru a second.If it doesn't then it's a
fake or a fad.
I spent 1 day, years ago going thru the Rolex plant in Geneva.
Trust me on that.


James,

This is no longer a difinitive method. All Rolex watches use to use a 21 jewely movement. They did not make any quartz movements. The balance staff continually and smoothly moves the second hand. A quartz movement move in one second intervals. There are now a few Rolex models made with a quartz movement. One can typically tell by the feel of the case. The case will be heavier than it appears. Fakes use a base metal for the case like tin and are relatively light. Rolex uses 18K gold or stainless steel.
