Telling Genuine High-Grade Watches Apart from Fakes by Movement Craftsmanship

Real high-grade watches never leave any regret for the buyer, every workmanship from the appearance to the movement is so delicate that people are touched, and real value for money is achieved.

1. Look at the movement First of all, we should know the movement model and movement marking of the real watch very well, if we meet the replica watch with transparent back, we can recognize the authenticity at a glance. Secondly, we should carefully observe the characters of the movement. The characters of the genuine movement are carved clearly and beautifully, while those of the replica watch are rough and have no sense of aesthetics. Finally, we should deepen our understanding of the performance of the movement, such as the method of winding (manual or active, unidirectional or bidirectional), the sound of the movement going time and so on.

2. Look at the back label Look at the factory label on the back of the watch. Generally, the label of the watch will have the logo of the brand and the number of the model number of the watch. Some watches will also have laser laser anti-replicaing on the back label.

3. Look at the subtle local appearance First of all, you should carefully observe the appearance of the watch, including the polishing of the appearance. See whether the polishing method of the watch is delicate, the polishing of the famous watch is very elaborate, while the craftsmanship of the replica watch is far from it. Look at the font, the font of a real watch is full, while that of a replica watch seems to lack confidence. Look at the function, most of the replica watches will not make efforts on the function, which is the breakthrough to see through the replica watches. The functions of many replica watches are laid out (such as moon phase, perpetual calendar, tourbillon, etc.), which are actually not available. Look at the hands, the hands of the real ones can be distinguished from those of the fakes in terms of length, thickness, shape and raw materials. For example, the blued steel pointer often used in high-class watches, the color of the pointer of the real watch is full of blue, which is burned by complicated craftsmanship, while the blue of the replica watch is brushed on. Look at the plate surface, the plate surface process commonly used in senior watches has enameled surface, guilloche process, metal radiating plate surface, shell plate surface, etc. Some watches have their own unique technology, such as Rolex's computerized plate, Cadia's pure gold-plated silver-engraved plate surface, and so on. Diamonds and setting process: look at the setting process, the quality and size of the diamonds.
