Fake Watch Explosion...WE SUE! | CRM Life E53

- It seems that fake watches have exploded! During the last few months, we're seeing more and more of them! During episode 53, the replicas continue to flood in!
One quick aside...at the beginning of this video, you get to enjoy some very interesting vintage Rolex watches from our friend Dan of Miami Watch Brokers, including one stunning Sophia Loren GMT.
Quickly after that, the fake watch adventure begins with a fake Rolex Daytona Panda that a client brings to our store. But is the watch really fake? Or at least a little real? If you're confused, so were we. We even had our friend and watch RUclipsr Eric Rivera (“Watch Eric”) come in to take a look at the watch. But Charlie wasn't satisfied with simply dismissing the watch as a fake, so he took it to one of our watchmakers for a closer examination. At the watch repair shop, they took both a real and “fake” models apart to compare the movements side by side. Boy where they SURPRISED!
During this episode, you'll also get to see a comparison of a real Patek Philippe 5711 and a fake Tiffany Patek Nautilus (the one with the blue dial), as well as a steel bezel, white-dial Daytona.
Unfortunately, since our last episode our CRM Jewelers Instagram page got taken down AGAIN, less than a month after Instagram reactivated the page and told us that they had taken it down by mistake!! So this time we did a little more than last time. We hired a lawyer to sue Instagram and also help us find the individual or company that is so obsessed with hurting our business. It is obvious that the same group has to be behind this.
Let us know what you think of the fake watches in this episode, our lawsuit, or anything else that we covered. Oh, and if you want us to cover anything in particular in our little reality series, please let us know as well!

0:37 CRM is giving Hoodinkee a run for their money & producing much better content.
Nice to see Eric with his buddies again.
👍👍
Isn’t it nice to see how CRM and Eric stay out of the drama online here?
Amazing to see Eric is back as a friend, smart guys pull together and reconsider positions.
Thanks man. Really appreciate the comment and support!
What happened?
@@sirfitz8125 Eric used to eat all of their Ice Cream, not a problem anymore, now Biden is doing that for all americans
el problema es que los mayoristas están abarcando con toda lla mercancía rolex y es una ridiculez pagar por un daytona 25 p 20 mil dólares cuando por 800 te consigues uno idéntico el mismo movimiento asero 904 L 50 metros al water proof vicel ceramic machine 4130 es identocoasi que no hace diferencia cuando bajen los precios del rolex el mercado mejorara
Yo, Eric in the building! When Eric started his own channel and CRM started CRM Life it was like gaining a new amazing show without losing the other. Proud subscriber on both channels!
Thank you my friend. That means a lot! 🙇🙏
@@Crmjewelers is he talking about me
LOL
Same here bro 😎 🤙🏽
There's plenty of space in the market for two great fighters, Carlos x Watch Eric 😎
Nice to see Eric passing through CRM. Just like the good ol’ days. I’ve been watching these RUclips videos too long.
Ha Ha, thanks for watching Gary.
Your watchmaker verified the movement was real. A rough cut crown tube on the inside proofs nothing as that could have easily been replaced together with the crown….or just executed poorly at the factory. I have seen tons of Daytonas on my bench and like I said, there are plenty of anomalies amongst gens and sometimes corners are cut by the owner during repair to save costs. The quality of the engraving between the lugs is a better verifier of authenticity. If you know what to look for. In the video I have not seen or heard any compelling evidence of it to be fake. Maybe I missed it. Nonetheless… I like your content bro. No hate 😊👍🏻👍🏻
12:50 *"Hello Netflix.... Apple T.V. "*
So nice to see Eric back with the Team. He’s the reason I bought my first Rolex. Nice job guys
👍👍
These guys are the American dream straight up. From bad to good everything in between. The grind of being a true American. Love it all.
🙏
This is awesome that Carlos and Eric Reunited!! That’s what Make CRM is the best family owned jewelers!! Amazing
Thank you so much Thomas.
Actress Honor Blackman played Pussy Galore, not Sophia Loren (who was never in any Bond movie). The Rolex GMT-Master II "Sophia Loren" 16760 was called such because of it's thicker "full body case."
Respect for embracing the MoonSwatch and not trashing it like others on RUclips. When I get one, will definetly upgrade with a Horus strap. 🌞😎
Thank you my friend. There's room for lots of things in the world of horology. 😉
After he spilled the coffee his Dad said "He's been doing that since he was 1 years old!"🤣🤣👏🏻
Love to see Eric back on the scene, can"t wait to see who"s behind taking your page down. CRM 4 Life!!!
Thank you so much Luis! 🙏
How funny is it to see Roman paying all that money to social media people(all while fording staff and not affording to pay staff) and then you have these hard working tough neck Cuban family members with a half mil subs while Roman is sitting at 100k. It’s true, geniality sells and this family is genuine through it all! Love you guys(CRM
🙏
Wow, VERY NICE to see Eric back together with the CRM gang. This reunion made the video for me, not the watches. This is a good team right here.
Thank you for your support Evelyn.
There not a team , Eric left long ago , he started watch Eric , they might do business together , and outside of business they are friends , but they are not a team anymore that ended long ago
People do not understand. Even when Watch Eric left to start his own thing. He was always on good terms with you guys. Awesome content as usual. Thanks for everything CRM Family.
Thank you so much Eric 🙏
Dan from Miami Watch Brokers is such a cool vintage guy. His fixing the bezel on the spot was hilarious, too.
I know. We're going to be doing some live streams with him to talk more about vintage pieces....hopefully next week! 🤞
That Dan guy in the beginning is incredible! I could listen to him forever. His passion comes through bigtime.
OMG best episode so far.. Seriously! Please make more of these videos where you do this type of investigation and invite other watch dealers such as Eric to get opinions. Cheers everyone! You guys are amazing!
🙏
Its nice to know that CRM is on top of their game. They can spot a fake watch from a mile away, its great to see that you guys go above and beyond to make sure that you do your due diligence on your watches.
You can never be too safe Kevin. Thank you for watching 🙏
Hey, congratulations on crossing 350k subscribers 🥳
Thank you so much Suraj!
@@Crmjewelers my pleasure 😇
Good to see the crew and Eric on good terms. Almost feels like an April fools joke, eh?
🤣🤣🤣
Nice to see Watch Eric at CRM!
👍👍
Charlie's willingness to learn and become an expert in many areas is why CRM is in good hands for the future
Another great show and we are extremely happy to see Carlos interact with ERIC in a fun way
Thank you so much, John.
Did ya'll just hear what Eric said? “If you look at the back of the hands on the reflection of the hands on the hands.." THAT WAS ON POINT YO!
👍👍
@@Crmjewelers love you guys❤️
Sophia Loren was never in a James Bond movie.
Don't know much about this channel but I appreciate the thirst for knowledge. It puts you ahead of your competitors. The more you know, the wiser. Keep learning everyday boys. Good job
Tbh I actually watch all 50 mins of this. Very entertaining. Could have your own show. You guys actually very good on camera. Nothing bad to say. Good job all around.
Wow, Peter. It's truly inspiring that you feel that way. We're deeply humbled. Have an amazing weekend. 🙏
The Daytona is most likely a Clean Factory Daytona replica watch. The blue hue is meant to replicate the 2022 Daytona - but it's also a little too blue, based on the AR coating on the crystal. Very good rep - they even have a replica movement. The watch sells for around $750.
Nice, I feel like I could keep up with a watch convo just from watching you guys. From my POV if I am dropping serious cash on anything, tools, entertainment, trips, watches, etc, I also invest on knowledge of the item. Its not enough to flash it, gotta be about it too.
The fake panda is from clean factory,well known to have a light blue tint to the dial.another give away is the milky crystal gasket
Remove comment please.. 🤦🏾♂️
SO HAPPY TO SEE ERIC BACK WITH FAMILY..THIS WAS A REUNITED FAMILY AGAINST ANY HATER OUT THERE….CRM AND ERIC GO HARDER TOGETHER THAN EVER!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you my friend. 🙏
NO NEED TO THANK BRO..DO ME A FAVOUR AND BRING THESE MONSTERS TO THEIR KNEES..AND THAT IS TO STAY NUMBER ONE LIKE YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN..THEY CANT STOP THE BLESSED..YOUR FATHER AND MY FATHER ARE BLESSING US AND THEY WILL BLESS US TO SHUT THE HATERS DOWN AND TO INCREASE THE HATER LINE..SEE U IN MIAMI THIS SUMMER BROTHER ⭕️🔥❤️🚀🚨🧨🆙💣🎥🙏🏾🌍
Hey CRM, This is one of my favorite videos . Some much information, experts . Showing us what to look for in picking out fakes and not getting ripped off. BUY from CRM and there won't be a doubt your rocking the real deal. And the relationship with these guys is PRICELESS. CRM4LIFE
Thank you Jose. It's one of our favorite episodes as well.
Very interesting insights on the fake watches hitting the streets. This is going to be a bigger problem moving forward with the values always increasing. Places more importance on box and papers. Especially a serial number that's legit. Good job CRM
Thank you so much Johnny. Agree 100%.
Two issues with that Johnny P:
1) Anyone who can fake a watch to a high level can EASILY fake ‘box and papers.’ Think about it. A company that can produce a high level fake that requires experts like CRM to tell apart can easily fake receipts, warranties, booklets and presentation box.
2) A bigger issue (much bigger in my opinion) is stolen watches. Experts can tell a fake watch, but identifying a stolen watch is something totally different. Many people will only find out years later when they take their watches for servicing and are told it was stolen.
Stolen watches is a big issue in my opinion.
@@kraitshakti I understand what you say and it is valid. Boxes are probably the easiest thing to fake in the watch production.
But what cannot be faked is the serial numbers that accompany the watch and the security card issued with magnetic strip highlighting where and when the watch was purchased with all owners details on the brand's database. This is in effect like the Vin and chassis numbers of a car. They cannot be made up. Only cut and shut. Those producing replicas will need to hack the database's of all manufacturers to implement their own made up serial numbers. This is way too risky to carry out.
I think all watch brands will have to start taking these things more seriously as it will protect their own brand and integrity. First place they can start with this is a lost and stolen register. And those caught in possession of stolen watches facing hefty repercussions. Ignorance won't be an excuse.
Just check if the movement has 1 or 2 bridges...
@@mies_cup exactly… the Chinese fake everything else almost flawlessly except the free sprung balance. All these conversations make me doubt the ability of their watch smith man
I’m a fan horology and appreciate people who are geeky and nerd in our appreciation , though the market is goofy just trying to enjoy. I try not to get into clownery of the social media watch world drama, but I can’t help myself. Best CRM to you, family and business!
👍👍
Amazing episode!!!! Love your hospitality to everyone you meet
Thank you so much AG. Everyone is important. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and appreciation.
For those who didn't notice, the guy in the Yellow sweater is Iga Świąteks Dad :) So awesome, he came to get a watch from You guys, I'm happy for the whole family :)
I hope CRM gets to do deep discovery and find out why Instagram took down the website twice. Your lawyer has the experience so please keep us informed as the case proceeds through the court system.
🙏
I love the episodes in this channel. Very nice.😊
However as a James bond fan, I have to correct the vintage watch expert on the Rolex GMT. It wasn't Sophia Loren who wore the watch in the James bond movie . It was Honor Blackman. In Goldfinger (1964).
Sitting on a roof for years , this guy is setting off every warning bell to me . I think he’s just like a guy that finds old canvas for a nice forger. But hey maybe I’m wrong .
LOL, the watch is real though.
All his watches were real though lol… Maybe you just don’t have the greatest instincts 😂
Crm putting all their rolexes in a tanning bed...
Got my popcorn ready for this one !
HA HA, this one's action packed. Let me know how you like it. 😉
Great episode, scary seeing how good these fakes are becoming. Great to see Eric hanging out with you guys, watch guys are one family, great vibes.
🙇🙏
It’s an 800 dollar fake lol. And it’s not a noob. It’s a CF. I own one and I own the genuine version as well. I use the fake when I’m on vacation or on a business trip to avoid it being stolen while traveling.
@@somtoth You would’ve been better off paying for insurance and enjoying the real watch.
@@somtoth
Okay, I'll be the guy.
So....
...where do you get a "CF" or another replica with quality as high as the Daytona the guys were scrutinizing here?
@@AJ-bi6ns of course I have insurance, but insurance doesn’t help with a 5 year waiting list
Bro I’m 25 mins into the video and I’m just amazed. Have learned so much just from that first half alone. Just started watching your content recently, thank you for the value!
Thank you so much for your support Jose. 🙏
I find it funny you guys are doing everything you can to prove it’s a fake watch. But yeah, fake watches are becoming the norm, people with real watches own fake watches too, and for those that like a watch but can’t afford it but can afford a super clone more power to them.
No.
@@heisenberg1271 you a Fugazy snake oil salesman
@@heisenberg1271 again, no.
If you can’t afford it - don’t pretend you can.
I have both fakes and genuine’s Fakes I wear to work etc. Genuine’s I wear for special occasions and for Investments for my children.
@@winstonchurchill9048 honestly it’s the smartest way. Same with shoes, if you have a pair of shoes that are highly sought after, they already know you have the genuine, so they won’t consider the fact that you are wearing some replicas.
This was good great seeing Eric back!
Love Carlos and how passionate he gets, such a top man. Bravo 👏🏻
Thank you so much Max!
CRM + Eric = epic win
👍👍
What Bond Film was Sophia Loren in ? The guy at the start mentioned it to my knowledge she was never in one unless she had a minor role, Great vid as always 👍👍
She wasn't
She was never in a Bond movie lol
@@Greektourguide that’s what i thought but the guy mentioned it more than once 🤦♂️
Great to see Eric in the crm shop. Almost nostalgic. Awesome to see the love still running between both. In Miami for the weekend and would love to pass through the shop
The mutual respect is still there. Love you guys. 😇
🙏
So nice to see Eric hanging out again with you guys!
👍👍
Outstanding CRM family, vintage pieces 🔥🔥🔥...much love CRM family
Thank you so much Saeed. Enjoy your weekend!
Never saw a fake watch with a real movement…where can you get a Daytona movement? Impossible
There’s no 50/50
Great video! Nice to see Eric there! You should do this more often!
Thank you more friend 👍
The week is over. I'm back home. The coffee is ready. Jazz is playing. The lights are dimmed. It's Friday night and CRM is on. God, I hope that never changes! I'd love to be the first to write a comment but I take so long to write that, sometimes, it's midnight and I haven't finished yet! This time I started earlier. Guys. this is getting ridiculous! Each week, I write ever more glowing reviews. Sometimes I tell myself that I will no longer have any inspiration. And every week, you surpass yourself and give me fuel. This new video I just watched is probably one of the best you've ever done! I refuse to believe what my eyes have just seen. How is it even possible? Week after week, guys! How do you do? What's your secret? What are you, man! Have you signed a pact with Satan? You have agreed to give him your souls and in exchange, the Prince of darkness grants you excellence? Is that how it works? And it's not even a matter of video quality, overlaid music or ever more iconic images. No Sir. It's a matter of soul. You have soul. A camera. Your family. And we let you go. We are instantly hooked. It hadn't even been 2 minutes since the video had started and I was totally invested. Vintage watch, fake watch, moonwatch, all of that was so captivating. The passion and the scrutiny were contagious. I've told you before but I'll say it again: simply following you in your interactions and in your conversations is magic. And to see Eric again inside your walls was a great gift! I said it last week and I sincerely believe it: CRM is the glue that must hold the watch community together. Your sincerity, your dedication, your love of the profession, your joie de vivre, your family values are of such magnitude that they must become the norm for the entire industry. It's also why I hope you find the mischievous little person (or group) who wants to hurt you. There is so much hate and negativity on social networks that to attack such a revered and generous family business is a lèse-majesté crime. I include in this negativity the sad person who wrote a long complaint online to pity his little self. It makes me want to repeat Mr T's favorite expression.... But let's not let this sadness get to us. let's take the good humor of CRM as an example. A good mood that I now have to wait a week before finding again. Yeap. I'll say it again: wish everyday was friday. Wish everyday was CRM day.
"I pity the fool!" Common Mike, spit it out! 😜 Thank you so much for your encouraging words every week my friend. They never cease to inspire us, so never cease writing them. Have an amazing weekend with the fam and Gold bless you!
Carlos smells crap from a mile away with fake Rolex’s. That wisdom is awesome. You can’t fool him
🙏
Did I miss how they reunited Erick and crm ? Great to see this beautiful guy's 💪👍
Who said we've ever been separated? 😜
27:45 Eric just filmed the best NOOB commercial ever. When will he drop his ads for ARF and CLEAN FACTORY?
Awesome video CRM and Eric 🤙🏽🔥
👍👍
At 48:34 he stood up to shake hands and say bye to a client which showed that he respects on anyone walking in his store🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏
Who is giving a bad review to Carlos? Come on man.🤬
Carlos te queremos papá. Sabemos quien eres. No solo los cubanos, pero todo youtube los apoya. Estamos con ustedes. 💪
Gracias hermano por el apoyo 🙏
Good to see Eric in CRM
👍
Great videography. Nice to see watch Eric !
Thank you, Dylan.
Great video. One of your best! The fake Daytona discussion was absolutely fascinating, as was the Instagram lawsuit discussion.
Thank you so much my friend. 🙇
Its a noob clone, 700 bucks :) but real daytonas can be different whites and different colors on the ceramic to.
The movement is 1:1 clone
Noob is made of an older Daytona and has a more blue-ish dial.
Is this not well known in these highend stores :O?
Nope it's the CF that has a blueish dial. Some say it's because of the crystal. The noobs have a greyish dial.
Cool to see Eric back on the channel!
👍👍
Small correction- Sophia Loren was never in a James Bond film. Honor Blackman played Pussy Galore.
Carlos , Charlie and the family seem like great ppl, good customer service and great energy.
🙏
Love the vintage. Pineapple plots Not certain I believe the “left on a roof for years” story, but stunning watch
LOL, it's good to believe. 😜
Best watch content on RUclips!
Keep them coming 💪
That's the plan my friend! 👍👍
Its scary because now they have these things called Frankensteins or something like that where there is real parts and fakes parts in the same watch 🤯🤯.. made by real watchmakers that sell for up to $6000..
Loving the social with the business,Keep it up guys x
I’m being honest I’d be terrified buying or selling a watch in case I bought a fake or try to sell a watch not knowing it was fake
That's a good point James. That's why dealer reputation is so important.
I literally love the channel keep them coming 💯
Charlie is such a good sport. They're always cracking jokes on him 😆 CRM is the best. Keep up the great work ✌😎💼
Thank you my friend.
WOW, Theese guys are great, firm believer that it cost money to learn. He admits it cost him a lot to learn his craft. Can’t wait to visit.
🙏
Great show. This could be a Netflix series.
🙏
Nice ! Cool atmosphere in this shop !
Thank you Patrick.
Get 'em! use that lawyer that always goes by the store!
Ha, Ha, that's Rashbaum and he just comes.
CRM ustedes sonnn TOP OF THE LINEEEE.....me gusta su canal y toy aprendiendo que es original y que es replica
Like always good video keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the support my friend. 👍👍
Respect Carlos such a special thing having the family in busines
🙏
Wow, this looked like a throw back with Eric in the building! Great content as always, keep up the excellent work CRM! I'm from Houston Texas myself and been watching y'alls videos. Hope to come check yall out one day.
P.s Just make sure Carlos has that chevy ready to take me for a ride,🤣🤣
Ha Ha, that's a deal Derrick.
Some people think the world revolves around them so take no notice of the negative people, Carlos. The real people understand when your busy or if you missed them, don't worry about these sad people. Your a great friendly business who could show many companies how to do real customer service. Liverpool UK.
🙏
Love the channel! The drive, commitment and love that your family displays is wonderful. Wishing you all success and good health, God Bless you all.
Thank you so much for your support and encouraging words Roger!
great episode!!!!!!! excellent information !! I loved the non fake watch section !!!!!!
These are solid dudes, new sub
👍🙏
CRM see you ans Eric together not only shows maturity but shows that you guys are a company I will be doing business with. I will be in Miami in a few months and I will come by.
Thank you so much Lucy.
So, to try and get this straight: Both Daytonas are real, but one has a few aftermarket parts? Am I getting this right?
One Daytona case is completely fake, but it has some real movement parts inside.
@@Crmjewelers So, the watch was passed as a fake? That's insane to see how far they went. They added some original parts to throw people off. Scary.
Yup!
There is a replica movement that accepts genuine Rolex parts people call them frankenstines
charlie wants to be better at what he does and i really love his passion & enthusiasm 🙏
Charlie is definitely upping his game Christopher 🙏
@@Crmjewelers charlie my man, don't you ever give up ! Lotsa love to you fr Malaysia
Loved every bit of this video. Charlie looking into the fake and explained the whole thing was fantastic, then Carlos with the second one , it’s sad to see so many fakes out there . Nothing better than the real thing.
I really hope you guys find out who is trying to sabotage the business, they need to feel the full force of the law and pay the penalty for trying to bring you guys down.
I know I say it each week, but there is nothing stronger than family.
Love watching you guys, have a fantastic week.😎🇦🇺😎
Thank you Sandra. Have an amazing weekend. God Bless!
Your best episode so far!!
Awesome! Glad you liked it!
Back showing much love from the east coast Va beach…not quite Miami Beach but it will do lol….Love you guys and the constant gems and knowledge you drop on your content….Always a pleasure watching
Be safe Be well
Thank you so much Josh. Your beach is good enough for us. 😉
Im glad you guys are still cool! I love it, Godbless you guys
Thank you so much Joshua!
Great video…..I like the family vibe and the honesty, and of course the watch knowledge!
Friday night again and another wonderful great full packed video. Am so surprised how good that fake watch was .. I still cannot understand the miserable people targeting your Instagram page or whining about you not giving them the time they think they deserve. Just because this is the internet, dignity, respect and truth should still apply to whatever one posts. Even for most of us living many miles away, and across the Atlantic like I do, we are welcomed into you lives and your business every Friday, it honestly feels like we visit you all each week. I truly wish you every success with the legal side of the Instagram saga. Much love from London Uk .
Thank you my friend for your encouraging words of support. Much love from your fam here in Miami. 🙏
You know what is hilarious. I can just imagine all the guys standing around the watch that is fake. Watch dealers love learning and seeing why a watch is fake so they are all excited and I can imagine the client sitting in the background crying while all the guys are laughing and excited about seeing the fake watch.
Everyone looks forward to the weekend I look forward to watching these great videos that CRM puts together every Friday. Like I say every week much love from Cali and glad to see the whole family at the store . #CRM4LIFE
Thanks Kyle. Really appreciate the support. Have an amazing weekend.
@@Crmjewelers thank y’all for the good vibes and great entertainment. Have a great weekend.
My pleasure Kyle. 🙏
Thanks for sharing how to spot a fake. Most of us don’t stand a chance unless we buy from a trusted source like an AD or CRM. I did visit Noob, who openly sells fakes. I thought this type of company would be illegally operating by selling fakes, so I can’t figure out why Rolex and other OEMs doesn’t do something in court or at the World Trade Organization.
I mean, it's China Danny...another world.
@@Crmjewelers I understand. Maybe Rolex should stop shipping into China until Noob shuts down. Just saying…more then one way to fix the problem.
Afaik Noob is already dead now. That daytona is from Clean. Like Noob, Clean also has 4130 clone.
Damn the fakes are really that good huh.
They're getting better and better each year, yeah.
