There has been some fakes floating around various watch forums in regards to the Special edition SINN for the elite German Grenzschutzgruppe (GSG-9) special forces unit in carry case.

Ever wonder the difference in movement and marking of Tudor with Rolex even though they are produced by the same company.


Here are some pictures that I think it will be useful to all watch collectors.

Tudor Prince Oyster Date (Rotor Self Winding- Automatic in another word)

Typical Rolex Case

Inside of the case is stamped with Tudor instead of Rolex if it is a Rolex but then again I have seen some with Rolex Stamp on it as well.

A definite distinct different in the movement with Tudor marking clearly stamped.

I hope all these information are useful to all watch collectors, I do not know what you collectors are interested, please do advise me and I see what I can do for you. Remember Knowledge is Power and let's share our knowledge and there is no point bring it to the grave with you.
