One of the biggest threats facing the watch industry is the proliferation of fakes and replicas. Truth be told, some very good fakes and replicas can be found these days.

Event Recap: Blancpain Watches At Tourbillon Store In San Francisco
The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms is an iconic watch. Don't believe me?
