Long story short, my father in law passed away and had this in his collection. I've done a bit of digging but havent come up with much and I cant even seem to find one that looks remotely similar...anyone seen one before?/know anything about them?
Thank you IMG-20200515-WA0003.jpg

Fake I'm afraid. Rolex doesnt produce skeleton dials.

I gave you the info. Its not genuine.

You wont find any history on imitation watches because they arent authentic.

Theres a photo of a similar one. All discussions lead the same conclusion. Country of origin? China most likely. Asking family members about your father in laws watch may give you more answers than what we can provide to you. If he enjoyed the watch and wore it often, then thats its story.

I believe its a fake, probably China. I know, I bought a beautiful "Rolex" Submariner for $30 dollars in NY around 42 street. It looked cool and gave me many years of service. LOL. :dontknow:

I wouldnt wear a sausage to tell the time:laughing7: If it has a distinct ticking then it isnt a Rolex. Rolex have a 'sweeping' seconds hand.

Welcome aboard, Anything else interesting in his collection?

Does the pork have a serial number? Is the rice sweeping or ticking? More awesomness from China
