Consolidated Oakley Watches Real or Fake Thread (Is this Oakley Watch Fake?)

[TravisCook]

It looks good to me again from what I see. I have like 25 minute machines but I’m not claiming to be expert. But just looking at certain things makes me believe it’s real.

It looked good to my eyes too. Even the gaskets from the photos. Brother said the gaskets are hard plastic. Aren’t they supposed to be rubber?
More photos he sent:

They could be aftermarket ones as some people will change colors or need some. But nothing to worry about there. Watch and band look authentic

Brother was able to pick up a quality driver set — Upon opening the caseback was not a Swiss movement; He said it was all plastic inside, just stamped China. No jewels; he was able to return for a full refund.

The fakes are too good anymore..

Ok well glad y’all figured it out. To bad it wasn’t Swiss movement.

Yep. It could’ve been a swapped Movement but, I don’t see an owner of a TT/MM doing a swap for another movement.

It’s possible the case + links were authentic but without the correct movement, and $700, I don’t think it’d have been worth the risk.

Just be careful out and about.
It was at a pawn shop (brother travels globally to pawn shops + antique stores for his business/online store).

The case and band is worth that the crystal alone. I think the inside went bad as they can if the batery goes to leaking and someone found the best movement to work in that watch. The main crown is worth some good money. I think it’s worth 700 for sure.

The band laid correctly compared to a aftermarket one. Parted out its worth it or if it was workin it was worth 700. What pawn shop is it at. lol got a phone number lol

 

[DrDust57]

Movements are hard to find for these watches since not made no more. Yes if ur collecting then maybe not the one for you or him but for wearing or parting out well worth it.

Hey O peeps,

I have found two Time Tanks (I think) for sale locally. I have only ever seen in person \ held one Minute Machine for about 30 seconds a few months ago, so I am in no position to verify if these are real or not(I own other O watches, but no MM's). I tried to get some good pictures of what I have seen people calling out when it comes to fake MM's. Both of these watches appear to working, could see second hand moving. Any information provided here would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
-Kurt
