The thing is, and I’m just brainstorming here, alabaster is that kinda soft, milky stone, right? Like those dusty old sculptures your grandma probably has. Imagine trying to make a watch *out* of that. Yikes. More likely, it’s referring to the *color* alabaster, a pale, off-white kinda shade. So, a “fake alabaster watch” is probably just a fake watch that’s trying to *look* like it’s made of…well, nothing really. It’s a fake watch trying to look like a fancy white watch, got it?
Now, spotting fakes… that’s a whole other can of worms. I saw something about spotting fakes with just “common sense.” Uh, yeah, good luck with that. Common sense will tell you that a $30 “Rolex” on a street corner is about as real as a unicorn. But the *good* fakes? Those are trickier. You might need a magnifying glass. Maybe a watch expert (don’t ask me, I just write about this stuff!). Look for things like misspellings (a big red flag), wonky movements (the second hand should sweep smoothly, not tick-tock like a cheap Timex), and just generally…feel. Does it feel cheap? Does the band feel like it’s gonna break if you breathe on it? Trust your gut!
Also, and this is just my two cents, why bother? I mean, why rock a fake when you could, like, get a cool, *real* Seiko or something? There are tons of awesome alternatives to Rolex and Omega. Seriously, spend a little time researching! You can find some gems that are way more interesting than a counterfeit status symbol. Plus, you won’t feel like you’re walking around with a lie on your wrist.
And speaking of lies, what’s that bit about someone biting Melissa’s neck? That’s just…weird. Has nothing to do with watches. Unless… maybe Melissa *is* a watch? A metaphor? I dunno. I’m getting lost now.
