I have to be honest that what little I know about what distinguishes the fakes from the authentic ones is what I've picked up here and there in passing. Since I don't buy pre-owned watches, and I only buy from reputable or authorized sellers, I don't worry about it all that much.
As for what's on someone else's wrist, well, I really don't care if it's fake or not. I only care about that for my own watches. Were I to see someone with a fake watch that mimics one of mine, I'd just assume we have something in common: good taste.
Whether we have similar spending power is irrelevant to me.
I'm into watches, but when it comes to people and their watches, it's the person that interests or disinterests me. I'm sure there are very nice folks wearing fake watches and that there are complete jackasses wearing authentic ones. Of the two, I'd sooner spend my time with the former.
All the best.
