Fake or authentic Hilfiger watch?

[andywhy]

Could someone help me out: I’m having a hard time deciding weather this is an authentic Hilfiger watch or a replica. Is there someone, who could help me out on that one...?

Arent hilfiger watches inexpensive enough to buy one new?

A fake Hilfiger, anything is possible, but I don't see the point of making
one.

Thats probably real, it would be more expensive to copy a Hilfiger than to make a real one, considering the cost of a real one I just find it hard to believe that someone wants the LOOK of a $45 watch but is unable to cough up the green.

If it is a replica then someone is manafacturing these things & walking about with a crazy buisness model & needs to book themselves in for some electric shock therapy

My 2cents worth is that its genuine.

A fake Hilfinger ? Who for goodness´sake would be going to fake a Hilfinger ? And at watch costs. I am sure yours is ok.

Well, every authentic watch comes with a serial number, check it is real or not with that number on the official Hilfiger watch website

I highly doubt hilfiger watches have serial no's. They're probably not quite as picky about only servicing watches from AD's as rolex and the ilk.

If you can sell a fake hilfiger for $45, you can make a profit. I've seen fake chinese watches sell for $5 each in some countries.

As said it would be a waste of time faking one of those, so im strongly suggesting it is real ! .

I cant help but to LOL

Tommy H watches definitely do not have serial #'s. But like what has been said previously, it would not pay to fake a T.H given that their retail prices generally range from 85- 150 $. faking one would be like counterfeiting a $1 bill.

Yeah, but if you did fake it, no one would suspect a thing

I have heard of fakes of inexpensive Seikos, so perhaps its possible. But I agree that it's highly unlikely that someone would go through the trouble of counterfeiting an inexpensive mall watch. Those already cost next to nothing to produce.

Also, it's certainly not true that all authentic watches will have a serial number. The only watches I own that have serial numbers are a couple of Seikos - the least expensive watches I've purchased. I do have a few limited edition pieces that have edition numbers on them, but every other watch does not have serial numbers.
