🔍 Authenticity Assessment

❌ Strong Indicators This Is NOT a Genuine Rolex:

Feature

Analysis

Battery-operated movement

Real Rolex Oyster Perpetual watches use automatic movements, not quartz battery-powered.

Engraved case back

Most Rolex models have a smooth, unengraved stainless steel back. The “Winner Rolex 24 Daytona 1992” caseback is typical of replicas.

No serial/model numbers

Genuine Rolex watches have a model number between the lugs at 12 o’clock and a serial number at 6 o’clock (under the bracelet). The absence is a red flag.

Plastic wrap still on bracelet

Rolex watches are usually sold without plastic on the band, especially not low-grade plastic wraps. This is typical of aftermarket fakes.

Price

$35 is far below even the cost of a damaged Rolex. Real Rolex watches start at several thousand dollars.
