Comments	Any other dealer saying they are selling Swiss-made replicas are lying. We have heard too many complaints from customers who got ripped off.	Any other dealer saying they are selling Swiss-made replicas are lying. We have heard too many complaints from customers who got ripped off.	These are basically high quality Japan-made watches with better parts than the regular replicas.	All of the dealers represent these as Swiss-made replicas. Don't believe them! You won't find a genuine, Swiss-made replica for under $700. Swisswarehouse and replicamall are 2 who are offering them as Grade 1.	Sold everywhere else on the net, and offered by the majority of dealers. Easy to buy, easy to sell. Many, many dealers try to sell these as Japan-made replicas.

Notes

This chart is an attachment to our article regarding the 5 main grades of Rolex replicas on the Internet. You can download the article by clicking here.
Beware of the many sites offering Swiss-made replicas at so-called "wholesale prices" - you will be EXTREMELY disappointed. We have received many complaints lately from people who purchased Swiss-made replicas from the sites not listed in the Grade 1 category.
90% of all replicas are made in China, even though 3 grades are popular on the Internet. The reason not many other China-made replicas show up on the Internet is because they are too cheap in quality and are mostly sold on the streets.
Grade 2 Japan-made replicas are seldom seen on the Internet as Japanese replicas. They are basically Japan-made cases with some swapped parts, and are considerably lighter than a Grade 1, Swiss-made replica. Dealers usually sell them as Swiss-made replicas because they can earn hundreds more.
A laser-engraved Rolex crown appears at the 6 o'clock position of the crystal only on the 2008 Swiss-made Rolex models! Some dealers have tried to manually engrave the Rolex crown onto the crystal, but it looks fake when seen up close.
Many dealers have not even seen a genuine, Swiss-made replica and are unknowingly ripping you off. A lot purchase any Grade 4 sweeping second hand watch and assume it's a Swiss replica.
Swiss replicas are really the only grade that can fool jewelers, because the other grades are too light.
Any sites using genuine Rolex pics. 90% of the times, you will notice the time is set to 10:10, because that's how most Rolex pictures are taken.
Don't always believe the descriptions/specifications written on the dealers' websites, because they can write whatever they want. We listen only to the extensive experience of our staff members and the angry complaints we receive.
Alert: We have heard nothing but complaints so far from $500 Swiss Rolex replicas, becuase they are usually $300 Japan-made replicas sold for hundreds more.

Here are 5 sample pictures of sites selling the 5 different grades of Rolex replicas on the Internet. Although these pictures are accurate as of the date of writing this comparison, some dealers may try to steal other sites' pictures and represent their watches as higher quality watches. Check back with ReplicaCenter.com regularly for updated reports about the latest complaints and scams on the Internet.

What's the problem with these pictures? The truth is, many dealers aren't shipping what they claim. So they may have good looking photos up but they're shipping low quality watches in exchange for much higher profits. What can you do you about it? Order only by COD so you can inspect the replica.

Notice another thing: from a distance, they all look the same. What makes them different is when you look up close, and find the finer things such as a laser-engraved Rolex crown on the crystal, or genuine Luminox markers.
