Hello All!  I am in the process of liquidating items from my uncle's estate and have a Rolex watch that I want to sell on eBay but am afraid it may be a fake!  How do I tell?  Can it be determined by looking at pictures?  I can post some!  Thanks.  Mary

Take it to a jeweler and ask.  Some of the fakes are almost impossible to identify.
 
Here's a good site:  Identify Counterfeit Fake Rolex Watches... Rolex or Replica? Don't get e-Screwed! (http://www.qualitytyme.net/pages/rolex_or_replica.html)
 
As a sidenote - when I took my husband's Rolex to a local jeweler he told me it was a fake.  I took it to a second jeweler who said it was real.  It WAS real.  I don't know if the first jeweler was going to purchase it from me at little cost or honestly didn't know.
