How to identify a genuine Rolex Submariner Date (Green)?

　　The Rolex Green Submariner is one of the most famous Rolex watch models and is extremely popular on the market. However, the watch market is mixed, with quite a few counterfeit or replica products. Below, I will teach you how to identify a replica Green Submariner watch!

　　Key points for identifying the Green Submariner

　　1、Generally, the craftsmanship of replica Rolex bracelets is relatively rough, and the edges of two-tone gold plating often show poor finishing, which is especially noticeable on two-tone models.

　　2、The biggest feature of counterfeit or replica Rolex cases is that they frequently mix and match components; different series and models are often mixed together to assemble a new product, likely in an effort to reduce costs.

　　3、There are many rough details on the dial of a counterfeit or replica Rolex watch, such as diamonds of varying sizes and uneven placement, uneven luminescence dot positioning, date windows misaligned with the dial, and serial numbers printed on some crystal tension rings.

　　4、The winding crown on a genuine Rolex resembles a smiling mouth shape and is colloquially known as the "smiling mouth", whereas counterfeit ones end up shaped like a downturned mouth due to manufacturing issues. This makes them very easy to tell apart by comparison.

　　Points to note when identifying the Green Submariner

　　1、A complete set of Rolex accessories should include 1 watch, 1 international guarantee card(s) (green), 1 presentation box(es), X instruction manuals, 1 green rectangular hang tag(s) (watch and bracelet reference numbers), 1 brown plum-shaped circular Chronometer certification hang tag(s), and 1 dealer guarantee card(s), whereas counterfeit or replica items may not necessarily include all of these.

　　2、Single-use protective films: Although a brand new watch may be tried on by many people, all appropriate protective films should still be present on the watch. There should be a plastic bezel protector around the outer bezel, a small square QR code on the left side of the case, and single-use protective films protecting the inner and outer surfaces of the bracelet, clasp, and lugs, while the thick circular film on the case back features a green section. Once peeled off, these single-use films are difficult to restore to their factory state. Therefore, irregular film placement may indicate that it has been peeled off by someone, and the complete absence of films may suggest a counterfeit or replica.

　　3、Crystal inspection: Peel back the crystal film to carefully check whether the crystal is scratched, whether there are Swiss hair or other debris inside the dial, whether the dial hour markers are intact, whether the luminescence is balanced in brightness, whether the hands are straight, whether the small crown logo is at the 12 o'clock position, whether the serial number on the rehaut engraving at the 6 o'clock position matches the guarantee card, and whether the anti-counterfeit micro-etched crown is at the 6 o'clock position on the crystal.
