I'm a member of a golf site and there is a guy posting pictures of his collection, including a "SWISS MADE" ALS, oh yeah. I counted 15 watches, which if they were legit would average $20,000 at least. I wanted to be sure they were real before I politely called him out and asked him to stop posting. Every watch is accompanied with some stupid story on how he acquired it.

Roff, I wasn't sure where to put this topic because it pertained to other brands. If you need to move or delete it I understand!

Here's a sample:

I don't think the AP Millenary is real, but not 100%

All of the Pateks, the AP, and the Cartier are fake. If those are all fake, I'm guessing the Vacheron is fake as well.

I'm about to bust him, I'll keep you posted.

It's incredible, he has stories for every watch he posted! I want whatever he's on!

Yep. The APs, the Cartier, the PPs... all of them need a steamroller to them.
