This here Rolex GMT-Master II, they call it “left-handed,” is a real fancy watch, I tell ya. Costs more than my old cow Bessie! But some folks, they love these shiny things. This one, it ain’t a real Rolex, though. It’s what they call a “high imitation.” Means it looks like the real deal, but it ain’t gonna fool nobody who knows their watches.
Now, I heard tell that the real ones, they got these numbers on ’em. Serial numbers, they call ’em. And model numbers, too. This high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II left-handed, it might have numbers, but they ain’t the right ones. Like puttin’ a fancy saddle on an old mule – it ain’t gonna make it a racehorse!
They say the real Rolex GMT-Master II, the hands, they gotta be stacked just right. First the hour hand, then the GMT hand, then the minute hand. Like stackin’ hay bales, gotta do it proper or the whole thing falls apart. This fake one, the hands might be all wrong. Might be like puttin’ the cart before the horse, ya know? Just don’t make no sense.
Some folks like to buy these imitation watches. They say, “Why spend all that money on a real one when this one looks just the same?” Well, I say, it’s like buyin’ a picture of a pie instead of a real pie. Sure, it looks like a pie, but you can’t eat it! And that classic style ain’t gonna fool nobody who knows their pies…or their watches!
They used to make these fakes in a place called the “Noob factory.” Don’t know why they called it that. Maybe cause only a noob would buy one, thinkin’ it’s real! Heard that factory’s gone now. Like a drought dryin’ up a well, it just ain’t there no more. So, if you see one of these high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II watches from the Noob factory, it’s probably an old one. Might even be worth somethin’ to someone who collects that kind of thing. Like findin’ an old horseshoe in the field – might be rusty, but some folks like that old stuff.
If you want a real Rolex, you gotta go to a real watch store. One of them fancy places with the shiny glass cases and the men in suits. But if you just want somethin’ that looks like a Rolex, well, you can find these imitations all over the place. Just don’t go payin’ too much for ’em. Remember, it’s like buyin’ a pig in a poke – you don’t know what you’re gettin’ till you open it up!
- High imitation Rolex GMT-Master II – looks real, but ain’t.
- Classic style – never goes out of fashion, they say.
- Real Rolexes got them special numbers.
- Them hands gotta be stacked just so.
- Noob factory – where they used to make these fakes.
Now, this left-handed version, it’s for folks who wear their watch on their right wrist. Don’t know why they do that. Seems backwards to me, like milkin’ a cow from the wrong side! But some folks like it that way. Different strokes for different folks, I reckon. This high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II left-handed version might look okay on your wrist if you wear it on the right. If you’re like me, wear it on the left.
This one fella, he told me he buys and sells these old watches. Used ones, ya know? He does it down in Laguna Hills. Said some folks like them old classic style watches. He’ll even let ya pick ’em up in person, or he’ll ship ’em to ya. Sounds like a lot of trouble for an old watch, if you ask me. But some folks, they got money to burn, I guess. Like throwin’ good money after bad, that’s what my pa used to say.
I remember when I was a little girl, my grandpa had this old pocket watch. It wasn’t a Rolex, nothin’ fancy like that. But it was real, and it worked. He kept it in his vest pocket, and he’d pull it out and check the time. That watch was important to him. It told him when to plant, when to harvest, when to come in for supper. It was more than just a watch, it was a part of his life. These newfangled watches, they might be all shiny and fancy, but they ain’t got that same kind of meaning, I think. The classic style is better than the new one.
So, if you’re thinkin’ about gettin’ one of these high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II left-handed version watches, just remember what I said. It might look like a Rolex, but it ain’t a Rolex. And that’s all there is to it. It’s like the difference between a real diamond and a piece of glass. One’s worth somethin’, and the other ain’t. But if you just want somethin’ that looks sparkly, well, maybe that piece of glass will do ya just fine. Just don’t go payin’ diamond prices for it! And don’t let nobody fool ya into thinkin’ it’s somethin’ it ain’t. That’s what them city slickers do, try to pull the wool over your eyes. But we country folks, we know better. We might not know much about fancy watches, but we know a fake when we see one!
