I recently received a Tudor watch as a gift from my boss at my retirement party, and I was thrilled with the thoughtful gesture. However, my excitement was short-lived when a coworker convinced me that the watch was actually a fake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My coworker began by pointing out several discrepancies in the appearance of the watch. First, the Tudor logo on the face of the watch<\/a> was not quite right \u2013 it was slightly off-center and the font was slightly different from what it should have been. Second, the markings on the back of the watch<\/a> were not consistent with genuine Tudor watches \u2013 the serial number was in the wrong location and the engravings were not as detailed as they should have been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He then examined the movement of the watch<\/a> and found several more red flags. The balance wheel was not moving as smoothly as it should have, and the oscillation of the balance spring was not consistent with a genuine Tudor watch<\/a>. Additionally, the watch<\/a> was not keeping accurate time \u2013 it was losing several minutes per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My coworker also noticed that the materials used in the watch<\/a> were not of the quality that one would expect from a genuine Tudor watch. The case and band were made of cheap, low-grade metals that were prone to tarnishing and discoloration. The crystal was also of poor quality \u2013 it was easily scratched and not as clear as it should have been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All of these discrepancies added up to a strong case that the Tudor watch I had received was indeed a fake<\/a>. I was disappointed and saddened by the news, as I had been so grateful to my boss for the gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, my coworkers surprised me by buying me a genuine Tudor watch<\/a> for my birthday. They had pooled their money and found a trusted dealer who could provide a high-quality, authentic Tudor watch<\/a>. I was touched by their thoughtfulness and couldn’t wait to wear my new watch<\/a> with pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I am grateful to my coworkers for their expertise and assistance in this matter. Without their guidance, I may have unknowingly continued to wear a fake watch<\/a> and been none the wiser. Instead, I now have a beautiful, genuine Tudor watch<\/a> that I can wear with confidence and appreciation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I recently received a Tudor watch as a gift from my boss at my retirement party, and I was thrilled with the thoughtful gesture.
