I have a Rolex knock off, purchased in the mid 2000’s in HK for $200AUD that is so good that two watch repair places I’ve taken it to have declared it one of the best fakes they’ve ever seen. Which is quite amusing because I got it mostly as a joke! It’s quite a lovely mechanical watch on its own, even without all the “Rolex” bits.
- saalweachter 8y agoMy favorite fake Rolex anecdote comes from my days in comparison shopping. There are three ways to get paid on the internet, for impressions, for clicks and for actions (eg, "actually buying something"). The latter typically pays a revenue share, which varies based on the item. Electronics have a tiny profit margin and usually pay something like 1%. Clothing has a giant profit margin and frequently paid 10-30%. The highest revenue share I saw was for a fake Rolex watch (which was marketed as a fake!), which had a 50% revenue share.
