GOT THIS WATCH THE OTHER DAY, SAY "JACQUES LEMANS" GENEVE, "SWISS MADE". OPENED UP THE BACK AND TOOK A PICTURE OF THE MOVEMENT. NO MENTION OF "JACQUES LEMANS" ON MOVEMENT. SAYS "SWISS EOL" AND "RONDA 5 JEWELS" IN VERY VERY SMALL WRITING. ALSO, BATTERY SAYS "SWISS MADE RENATA". IN ANYONE'S OPINION, IS THIS A FAKE JL WATCH OR COULD IT BE AUTHENTIC? ANY INFORMATION WOULD HELP!!! THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION!!!
Why would you think the watch is a fake? It has a Swiss made quartz movement, a lot of reputable Swiss watch companies source quartz movements from Ronda, not to mention who would fake such a brand? Counterfeiters go after well-known luxury brands.
Also, this is the high-accuracy quartz board, what you bought isn't HAQ so best to move this thread to the Public Forum
Nobody would fake a JL. Costs would almost equal real prize of a JL.
You got a swiss Ronda 5 jewels end of life quartz movement with your JL. You can't ask for more.
It's real. Ronda is a Swiss movement manufacturer, and a 5 jewel quartz movement is fine, as there are few moving parts.
'EOL' stands for 'end of life', a feature of this movement: when the battery needs changing, the second hand will jump every 4 or 5 seconds instead of every second.
Thank you very much for all your replies!!! Very sorry about using the all caps- was not aware I would offend anyone. Sorry. Thanks again for everyone's opinion- it is greatly appreciated!!! Have a great day!
I guess I saw this exact watch several days ago on Ebay, am I right?
Regarding its authenticity - its definitely the original one.
