I heard some folks talking ’bout them fancy watches, them Rolex ones. They was sayin’ somethin’ ’bout a “Submariner,” a black one, without no date on it. Sounds mighty peculiar to me, a watch without a date! How you gonna know what day it is? But hey, what do I know? I just use the sun and my old rooster to tell the time.
Now, these young’uns, they’re all about buyin’ these high imitation things. Means they ain’t real, but they look like they are. They say it’s a good way to get the look without spendin’ all your money. I reckon that makes sense. Why spend a fortune on a watch when you can get one that looks just as good for a fraction of the price?
They was sayin’ you gotta be careful though. Some of these fake ones are real good, and some are just plain junk. You gotta know what you’re lookin’ for. They kept goin’ on about somethin’ called “Rolex No-Date Black Submariner,” like it was some kind of special thing. I guess it is, to them.
One thing they said was that the real Rolex watches, the date thingy changes right when it hits midnight. Sharp as a tack, they said. These fake ones, not so much. Sometimes it’s a little slow, sometimes it’s early. That’s one way to tell if it’s a high imitation or the real deal, I guess. Not that I would know one from another. My eyes ain’t what they used to be.
Another thing is the weight. Them real ones are heavy, they said. Made of good stuff. These high imitation Rolex watches, they might be lighter. You can feel the difference if you hold ’em both, they was sayin’. Course, you gotta have a real one and a fake one to compare. And who’s gonna have both of those just layin’ around? Not me.
- That date thing, they call it a “date display.”
- Changes right at midnight, they say.
- The fake ones, not so much.
- Real ones are heavy.
- Fake ones might be lighter.
They talked about the way it’s made, too. The real Rolex watches, they’re put together real careful. Everything’s just so. These high imitation ones, they might have some little things that ain’t quite right. A little crooked, maybe, or a little loose. You gotta look real close, they said.
Now, I don’t know nothin’ ’bout these fancy Rolex Submariner watches. But I do know a thing or two about gettin’ your money’s worth. If you want somethin’ that looks nice, and you ain’t got a lot of money to spend, then maybe these high imitation things ain’t so bad. Just make sure you know what you’re gettin’. Don’t go payin’ a lot of money for somethin’ that ain’t worth it.
I remember one time, my neighbor, she bought a “real” gold necklace from a fella at the market. Paid a pretty penny for it, she did. Turns out, it weren’t real gold at all. Just some cheap metal painted gold. She was madder than a wet hen, I tell ya. Same thing with these watches, I reckon. You gotta be careful.
If you are going to buy one of these Rolex No-Date Black Submariner things, they said to do your research. Whatever that means. Look around, ask questions, don’t just jump at the first thing you see. They say you can find good deals on these high imitation Rolex watches if you know where to look. But I don’t think they meant the flea market down the road.
- Look real close at how it’s made.
- Real ones are put together perfect.
- Fake ones might have little mistakes.
- Do your “research,” they say.
- Don’t buy the first one you see.
I still don’t understand why anyone would want a watch without a date on it. Seems kinda silly to me. But I guess that’s just the way things are these days. Folks want what they want, and they’ll find a way to get it, real or not. And if you are keen to purchasing one, just be careful, that’s all I can say. Don’t get fooled. A fool and his money are soon parted, as they say. I’ve seen it happen time and time again. Make sure you know what you are buying and it is a high imitation one if it is not a real one. Better to know it before the purchasing.
They was saying these Rolex No-Date Black Submariner watches are popular. Lots of folks want ’em. I guess they’re some kind of status symbol. Like a fancy car or a big house. Me, I’d rather have a good milk cow than a fancy watch. But that’s just me. I guess everybody has their thing. Some people like them high imitation Rolex watches, some people don’t. To each their own, like they say. Just don’t come cryin’ to me if you get ripped off, that’s all.
