LOL! Damn! I thought that the watchmakers forum in a different site are harsh when it comes to the Chinese knock offs. They get pissed off if you even ask them how to assemble a watch with the intent of creating a knock off just for yourself.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of fake watches (or anything else that is a knock off). As a hobbyist watchmaker they are an insult to my intelligence (even more than fashion watches are). I just found it funny how serious you guys are. I've come to realize that collectors are as passionate about time pieces as watchmakers are.

But I'm kind of surprised that the OP had no idea that his watch is a fake; I saw a pic of the exhibition back on the watch and there is NO way to mistake that POS Chinese movement for anything that's even remotely Swiss. That thing is SO crappie that I wouldn't touch it with my cheap tools.

Too, you must remember that the Watch Talk Forum site's OFFICIAL stance on counterfeits is that they are an infringement upon original intellectual property, the profits (be they partial or total) fund world-wide terrorist groups, and are illegal to manufacture.
