In my country those fakes were always sold as originals. To make this believable, they were sold as stolen.
So you'd be approached on the street by a someone who looked sketchy and offered a Rolex for USD$100. They'd open a bag and let you look into it to see the Rolex while they made a big deal about checking to see that there were no cops around.
If you declined, they'd drop the price by half. Must have been effective because they did it for years.
