Well, howdy folks! Let’s jaw about them fancy watches, the kind that cost more than my whole pigpen, ya know, the Rolex thingamajigs, especially the Submariner ones. I ain’t no expert, mind you, but I’ve seen a thing or two, and I can tell ya, there’s a whole heap of fakes out there, more than fleas on a stray dog, I reckon.
So, if ya wanna get yerself a real Rolex Submariner, listen up, ’cause I’m gonna give ya the lowdown, the way my grandma used to tell me how to pick a good watermelon – gotta thump it and listen for the right sound, ya see?
- First off, let’s talk about the weight. A real Submariner, it’s got some heft to it, like a good ol’ cast iron skillet. It ain’t flimsy like them tin cans they sell at the dollar store. They say it’s about 40 millimeters wide, which is about this much, I reckon holds up thumb and forefinger. Heavy means good, like a full sack of potatoes.
- Next up, the hands. The little one that counts the minutes, it shouldn’t be too long, shouldn’t be stretchin’ out over them little minute marks on the face. If it’s too long, like a nosy neighbor pokin’ into yer business, then it’s probably a fake, a phony, a no-good piece of junk.
- And then there’s the dial, the face of the watch, ya know? That’s where they put all them fancy little numbers and whatnot. A real Rolex, it’s got a clean look to it, not all smudged and blurry like my old glasses after I been cookin’ bacon all mornin’. The writin’ should be sharp and clear, like my rooster’s crow on a sunny day.
Now, some folks, they get real fancy, talkin’ about serial numbers and such. They say you can check them numbers to see if the watch is the real McCoy. I ain’t never done that myself, but I reckon if you’re spendin’ that much money, it might be worth lookin’ into. Kinda like checkin’ the teeth on a horse before you buy it, ya know?
Them fake Rolex Submariners, they’re everywhere, like weeds in a cornfield. They try to look like the real thing, but they ain’t got the heart of it, the soul of it. It’s like them imitation butter spreads, they might look like butter, but they sure don’t taste like it. A real Submariner, it’s a thing of beauty, a thing of craftsmanship, a thing that’ll last longer than my old mule, and that’s sayin’ somethin’.
So, how do you tell the difference, how do you separate the wheat from the chaff, the good from the bad, the real from the fake? Well, it ain’t always easy, that’s for sure. But if ya pay attention to the weight, the hands, the dial, and maybe even them serial numbers, you got a better chance of gettin’ yourself a real Rolex Submariner Quote, and not some cheap knock-off that’ll fall apart faster than a scarecrow in a hurricane.
And remember, if somethin’ seems too good to be true, it probably is. If someone’s tryin’ to sell ya a Rolex for the price of a chicken dinner, well, you better start walkin’ the other way, fast. ‘Cause a real Rolex Submariner, that’s an investment, like buyin’ land or a good piece of farm equipment. It ain’t somethin’ you find in a bargain bin, unless maybe that bargain bin fell off the back of a truck, and that ain’t the kinda bargain you wanna be involved in, ya hear?
High imitation Rolex Submariner Quote, that’s what they call it, I think. But a high imitation ain’t the real thing, no matter how ya slice it. It’s like them folks who try to talk all fancy but ain’t got a lick of sense, ya know? It’s all show and no go. So, if you’re gonna spend yer hard-earned money on a Rolex Submariner, make sure it’s the real deal, a genuine article, a timepiece that’ll last you a lifetime and maybe even be somethin’ you can pass down to yer grandkids, long after I’m gone and the chickens have come home to roost.
And that’s all I gotta say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my stew. Smells like it’s about ready, and I’m hungrier than a bear after a long winter nap.
