This year, that Rolex, I tell ya, it’s somethin’ else. Especially that high imitation Rolex two-tone blue Submariner, the one you see in them specialty stores. My grandson, he’s always on that internet thing, he showed me. Says it’s a real popular watch. High imitation, that’s what they call it.
Now, I don’t know much about fancy watches. My old man, he had a Timex, lasted him a lifetime. But this Rolex thing, it’s got everyone talkin’. I asked, “Why’s it so special?” This two-tone blue Submariner, you can find it in them Rolex specialty stores. Those places, all shiny and bright, kinda intimidate an old gal like me. You can find these watches there, but they cost an arm and a leg.
That blue, they say it’s like the ocean. I seen the ocean once, down in Florida. This watch, it’s got that same kinda blue. I guess that’s what it’s named that way. And two-tone, that means it’s got gold on it too. Shiny gold, like that necklace my daughter wears. But it ain’t real gold, my grandson says. It’s just made to look like it. This is what makes it a high imitation Rolex.
These watches, they ain’t cheap, even the fake ones. But folks, they sure do love ’em. I seen a fella down at the diner, he was wearin’ one. Showin’ it off to everyone. Said it was a Rolex. Looked real enough to me. But I seen it online, there is a lot of fakes. You gotta be careful when you buy one of these.
There are many kinds of these watches. Let me tell ya what I saw online:
- One with a black face.
- One all gold.
- One that’s silver lookin’.
- And that two-tone blue one, the Submariner.
My grandson, he says there’s a whole bunch of different kinds. Eight, I think he said. They all look kinda the same to me, just different colors. But them young folks, they know all about this stuff. They always find these things online. There are a lot of Rolex specialty stores online these days. My grandson always buys things online.
He says these fake Rolexes, some of ’em are so good, even the watch people can’t tell the difference. “Super clones,” he calls ’em. Sounds like somethin’ out of a movie, don’t it? They copy everything, even the insides of the watch. It’s a crazy world we live in. Back in my day, you knew what you were gettin’.
They say the real ones, they’re heavy. Like holdin’ a brick, almost. And they got all these numbers on ’em, tiny little numbers. You need a magnifying glass to see ’em. I can barely read the numbers on a cereal box these days. But those young folks are always readin’ somethin’. These high imitation Rolex watches look like the real ones, but they are lighter.
Some of the real ones got some special numbers, 5513 and 5517. I don’t know what that means but that means it’s rare. Some people want these. Those Rolex specialty stores sell these. But they are expensive. But this high imitation, it has those numbers too! I don’t know how they do it.
That blue Submariner, that’s the one everyone wants. They say it makes you look important. Like you got a lot of money. I guess that’s why folks buy ’em, even the fake ones. They want to look like they got it all. But folks should not be fooled. Most of these watches are fake. It’s hard to find a real one in them Rolex specialty stores.
Now, I ain’t sayin’ it’s wrong to want nice things. We all like pretty things. But it’s important to know what you’re buyin’. Don’t go spendin’ all your money on somethin’ that ain’t real. That’s just silly. It’s not worth it.
This high imitation Rolex two-tone blue Submariner, it’s a pretty watch, I’ll give it that. But it ain’t worth breakin’ the bank for. There’s more important things in life than a fancy watch. Like family, and friends, and a good home-cooked meal. I would not spend that much money on a watch. I would rather buy food. Food is much more important than a watch.
So, if you’re thinkin’ about buyin’ one of these watches, just be careful. Do your research, like my grandson says. Make sure that you buy it in a Rolex specialty stores. And don’t be fooled by them “super clones.” A watch is just a watch, after all. It’s just somethin’ that tells time. It’s just somethin’ that looks nice. It’s not worth all that money. I would not buy one.
That’s all I gotta say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. It’s late, and I’m hungry.
