Can You Spot a Fake Tudor? // Attack of the clones! // Tudor Black Bay Harrods 79230G
You have saved up your hard earned cash and decided you want to buy a Tudor Black Bay Harrods edition only to find out there is a waitlist at Harrods.
Your impatient and you want the watch now!! You don't mind paying a little over retail so go looking on auction sites and forums and find one.
Would you be able to spot the difference?
Hopefully this video will help you avoid getting sold a replica.
If you can only buy from an authorised dealer (or a highly reputable reseller)
This video is for educational purposes, please do not ask where to buy replicas, your comments will be deleted.
Checkpoints
1. Bezel Movement - Should be firm and no play
2. Clasp Fitting - Should be easy to remove but firm
3...

    Harrods is selling these again. No waitlist. They are also selling under retail on other platforms (used).

    ONE test : put it in water, if bubbles, it's probably a fake, if it stops to work it's a fake or you forgot to screw the crown.

    The engraving on the replica’s bracelet looked better than the original

    Does the bracelets on the fake still have the ceramic ball bearings?

    Take the back off, job done, of all the tells this is the one you didn’t do and it’s the only one you 100% should do. I’ve got both and the things you mentioned were not present on the fake/replica I have. I’m not condoning it but there is no play in the bezel, the click is almost exactly the same (were the clones to use ceramic ball bearings it would be the same) the strap is very similar to the Gen. the only way to really tell was the copy only lasts for about 40hrs and I took the back off and then it’s obvious.

    what needs to be written/showed on the warranty card? mines says MODEL: 79030N, SERIAL: 2V20022. Is there any forums where i could send 20-30 pictures of the bb 58 that i would like to buy and someone could tell me ifts it replica or not?

    There are fantastic watches for £250 that are original have a warranty and are authentic. If you buy and wear a fake watch you are about as sad as it gets.

    Nice comparison, but i really think that showing to hands with the fake and real thing, moving all the times in the screen is not valuable at all, just put them on a surface and to your talking but 2 moving hands with fingernails and no focus on the (moving) wathches is irritating a lot. this replica has also swiss made at the bottom of the dial, i have seen clones without any text there, and not even the H engraving on the back. show the back also more and keep them still please

    You can tell its easier to fake a Tudor than a Rolex. The Replica Tudor looks much better than a Replica Rolex. That being said a genuine Tudor is still better because the Replica's movement will be , cachu llwyr 😂

    A note on the crown. Apparently, the crown logo thickness varies by production year. You can have a genuine BB with a thin crown logo and another with a thick one.

    The biggest and easiest way to tell…the indices and the hands…night and day with the differences. The fake clearly cheap stamping…compared to the Tudor..and the indices…again clearly not even close to Tudor quality. I would also suspect the lume with be a dead give away…

    • @greatmindsacademy
      @greatmindsacademy Год назад

      Is it possible to find the indices and the hands and replace them? Sorry for noob question

  • @elmonteslim3711

    So if someone can make a watch this good for 250 why are Tudor charging 3000 ?? Like Rolex, they are price gouging rich idiots.

    The black bay I have the crown rose is very thin like the replica here. Weird because mine is authentic from jomashop.

  • @cyriloblouk6405
    @cyriloblouk6405 Год назад

    Does the fake keep chronometer time and have a 70 hour power reserve? I would hope not...otherwise, what's the point of the authentic?

    I love Tudor watches most all. It's a shame these have to be counterfeited! Great upload!

  • @dredgewalker
    @dredgewalker 2 года назад

    I sometimes think the modern clone makers actually leave a few details to tell that it's a clone because if they clone the watch too accurately it will fully ruin the watch brand they are cloning and this will ruin the market and they will also not be able to sell clones. The printing on the dial is actually raised more on the original than the clone which is another tell on which one is the real deal.

    CAN TUDOR turn a profit at 1200 ?? I think if TUDOR sold watches at 1200 or even ROLEX at 2500 vs 300-500# fakes.. most people would by a REAL DEAL! but i guess they cant turn a profit .

    These days I buy Invicta, glycine, Vostok, Timex, even Tissot online, because I know I got an authentic watches. Once you get to a price point of longines, there is a chance you got a replica from one of those factories...

  • @MTLJack
    @MTLJack 2 года назад

    The only Gen watches i would buy would be brands like Rolex because they gain value over time. So its somewhat an investment. As opposed to Tudor, it loses value.

  • @erizzle67
    @erizzle67 2 года назад

    I don’t know about anyone else, but a tight bezel click is much preferred and well worth the premium in price. Just kidding! I collect mostly obscure Asian brands. My entire collection isn’t even a down payment on even a lower end Tudor. Pro tip on cheaper clasps: put s finger between your wrist and the clasp, then put more of a lateral pressure not pulling straight upward.

    Great advertisement to buy a superclone, it's not an expensive mistake, it's a cheap opportunity to own an exclusive watch that no one will know 😂 A tighter clasp is a bonus too, less likely to open by mistake. Your splitting hairs here chum, im going for a superclone, thanks for recommendation and showing me how little I'm missing out on with a genuine one.

    • @marcounkel4806
      @marcounkel4806 2 года назад

      If you can’t buy the original, you can’t wear it. Not even a clone, how clownish it is, acting like you have a 5k watch, but doesn’t even have money to pay your bills.

  • @lancecullers7341
    @lancecullers7341 2 года назад

    Or maybe the quality of the original is not what we once though?? The clones are an exact example of how we are being manipulated by marketing tactics.
