Fake Watch Buster (FWB) has called out Dino Melaye, a former
senator representing Kogi west, for allegedly flaunting two “fake” luxury
watches on his social media.
FWB is an Instagram page that targets prominent figures who
wear wristwatches that are fake and post them online while tagging the affected
persons.
It does this by posting the version of the particular
wristwatch considered fake while highlighting its similarities and differences
with the original one.
Melaye, who is well known for his flamboyant lifestyle, had
taken to his social media page last year to share two of his luxury watch
collections.
In the pictures dated January 17 and December 27, Melaye was
seen sporting the RM053 Pablo Mac Donough Tourbillon and MP-05 La Ferrari
respectively.
But on Wednesday, FWB christened the former lawmaker’s two
wristwatches as “fake version”.
The Instagram page, which has nearly 130,000 followers,
added that Melaye also owns several other wristwatches that “are looking
sketchy.”
“@dinomelaye we just want to let you know that you’re
wearing a fake @richardmille RM053 Pablo Mac Donough Tourbillon and a fake
@hublot MP-05 La Ferrari,” it wrote.
“He own also many other watches and them are looking sketchy
as well.. A genuine @richardmille RM053 Tourbillon is limited to only 15 pieces
worldwide and the list price for it at the time of release, was over $630K.
“A genuine @hublot MP-05 La Ferrari is limited to only 50
pieces worldwide and is worth approx $390K.”
The anonymous page said it arrived at its conclusion after
subjecting the features of the watches worn by Melaye to multiple checks.
“Disclaimer: I don’t
know if the subjects of my posts are aware of wearing fake watches. All of the
features shown are based on multiple checks and, in case of ambiguity, external
experts are also consulted. We distance ourselves from any form of bullying.”
Melaye is yet to reply to the claims as of the time of this report.
