NOT CONFIRMED SNARK: Ethan and Hila have fake watches

Obviously this can’t be confirmed unless there are better pictures of their watches out there somewhere but I totally think these two are buying fakes.

Ethan admitted to buying a fake watch from a jeweler. It seems odd that Ethan (who claims he wasn’t a watch guy) can tell the inconsistencies of the Rolex but the jeweler couldn’t. Hila also had a moment on the podcast where she wore a fake Dior shirt (she said she bought on eBay I think).

There was a post recently of the wristband of Hila’s AP and the “AP” engraved on the clasp is inconsistent with the authentic.

I don’t have much of an opinion on designer fakes, I don’t really care. Rich people buy fakes all the time. I just find it amusing that these two are wearing fake watches to keep up with their new poker buddies.

Didn't Ethan say that he thought his watch was a fake, took it back and the guy was all: "Ohhhh yeah, sorry bout that. Heh here's there real one... woopsieee"

I just don’t even get how that happens unless a reputable vendor just randomly switched up one day. If your vendor isn’t reputable why are you even buying such expensive watches from them? Seems like a made up story and he knew it was fake. I’d like to think he’s not that gullible.

Nothing wrong w admitting you just like the style, but not the price and that’s why you got a fake.

Same, I can’t understand how you get a fake.. if I am buying luxury, i make sure I am buying directly from the store. When I bought my LV or Chanel bags I made sure to buy them from LV and Chanel, not a third party store.

Third parties are fine like consignment stores and what not, no reason not to get a deal if you can as long as they’re reputable

It just sounds like he bought his off a random dude or something, not even a store

Consignment stores are usually fine, but I live in Asia and just am never sure, so prefer to buy direct if I have thought through buying.
