NOT TRUE: Axl's Versace Watch
«
on:
November 19, 2012, 10:33:39 AM »
Note: This is not Axl's watch!
As some of you may have seen, a Versace watch that purportedly was given by Donatella Versace to Axl is being auctioned off here:
http://www.julienslive.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/80/lot/32190/
Obviously it's pretty expensive, so I just wanted to see if any of the people here could verify it's authenticity either by knowledge of the gift, or awareness of photos showing Axl wearing it.
Thank you.

If it was gifted in 2007 I doubt there are any photos of him wearing it. But being it's a Julian auction, I don't think I'd have any doubts. I wish I had the money though, because that is one helluva timepiece. Love the hint of red on the bezel, I'm sure that just glistens against the diamonds.

Was just wondering the same thing. I go back to his joke on Jimmy Kimmel when Jimmy asked him when did GNR start making $$$ and he said "I don't know if I'm making money now." I'd really hate to think he needs it that bad. Don't know. Just throwing something out there.

Beta is there anyway we can stop them from selling this if it's not Axl's?

I'll believe Beta when it comes to Axl, plain and simple. It might as well be from the man's mouth, period.
If you check out some of the other item's in the auction you will find Slash's guitar with it signed' starting at $400. Also you will find Izzy's guitar also up for auction but for alot more $20,000. It has to do with the giutar' 1959 gibson I think but not sure(not going back to look) there's over 600 items in the auction and I didn't write down the lot numbers for Slash's or Izzy's guitars but if someone has the duckets look it up and have at it. There are some crazy things for sale, mostly music memorabilia. But as Beta said, I wouldn't trust that the stuff is from who there saying it's from without documentation.

Yeah they should put a stop too it. Maybe its just the same model and someone has been had. The seller probably doesn't know it's fake.

Thank you Beta for your clarification
Anyway someone should report to Juliens auction that this is a scam.

"Julien's Auctions guarantees the authenticity of Attribution of property listed in the catalogue or online as stated in the Terms of Guarantee."
I think Julien's Auctions is a big SCAM, they should be in jail.
Thanks Beta for the clarification!!

Beta and Jarmo - thank you very much!!! This is a lot of money to me, and I don't want bid on it if the watch is not what it is held out to be (that is, the watch Donatella gave to Axl).
I called Julien's this afternoon to alert them to this situation. They have assured me they will look into how they got the watch they are selling and get back to me.

I did
But in all fairness they've been really good with their time. Maybe Axl should leave his watch home all the time. On the other hand, did anybody check to make sure the watch was still at the house? Somebody may have lifted it.

Beta is there anyway we can stop them from selling this if it's not Axl's?
Love how Beta pops in every once in a while, drops the hammer down to kill a rumor, and then disappears in the night.
