I've been trying to determine how I can identify a RADO fake from the real deal. There seems to be even more fakes of RADO out there than even the Navitimers.

I think rado do have a model in their range similar to that but I would be looking at the advert mainly for a lond description of each watch where it was bought how old it is and good high quality pics of the front back and sides showing serial nos etc,I would also expect boxes and paperwork etc.

As a very generall rule people who list expensive watches with very little desciption and poor quality photos have something to hide,And is always tto be avioded unless you really know what your doing or you can meet face to face,Its diffrent if you are only spending a few $$ which paypal cover but anything over say $100 be very cautious of especialy ones like this listing. :roll:

amy watch which says things like this "The Man Have Some Gold Plate Come Of" is to be avoided as its likley to be a fake in my opinion that is.
