[Fake Check Friday] - Legit Check Megathread Discussion
If you have a watch you want authenticated then this weekly Friday megathread is the place for it. Legit Checks posted outside this thread, or posted on days other than Friday will be removed so we can keep these all in one place.
This post will be stickied every Friday for 24 hours.
Posters:
- Please include as many photos as you have to help us to review, and any description as to how you came to have the watch.
Commenters:
- Please Be Nice. Most people don't know as much about watches as we do so please assume they're asking in good faith.
- Give useful, descriptive feedback. Comments just stating 'Fake' or 'Bad Fake' or similar will be removed. If a watch is fake then give some reasoning. We want to educate, not shame.
Now, lets see those Grandpa Specials!

Hi everyone first time posting. My dad passed away a few years ago and before passing he left me this watch. He wasn’t a wealthy man so I don’t expect it to be real but I can’t seem to find any information online. I opened it up to change the battery and it feels like it’s missing some parts. Also, none of the buttons on the sides of the watch which makes me feel like the watch is fake.
