Where it matters most
Where fraud actually happens with luxury goods
Hardware Weight & Finish
Replica hardware often feels lighter or has an inconsistent finish. We photograph hardware in close detail for the buyer to assess.
Stitching Precision
Authentic pieces use consistent, precise stitching. We capture stitching patterns so irregularities are documented, not guessed at.
Serial/Date Codes
Codes inconsistent with the brand's known format for the claimed era are a common red flag. We document exactly what's stamped inside.
