CSI: Club Stogie 2- Six Smokes, Six brands, Three fakes...

I just get all the bum deals dont i? hehe well sometimes you gotta get burned in search for a trustable- anything! SO here we go again! Now i dont want Illuminatus going and winning this via the second post... (j/k go for it!)

I wont complecate this one as much as the last, as there is no genuine conterpart to the fakes. I did get a little cheeky with the camera so dont let me fool you! I did not change/remove any of the bands.

So tell me which 3 are fake and one reason why (per fake) you win! I have pre selced two appropriate answers that i found fair for each smoke. I hope to filter out the 'random guessers' from the googlers this way!

The jackpot? Your choice of any 1 of the 3 real ISOMs and... 9 other tip-top smokes! (see next post in thread!!)

I can only tell you with certainty of one that is fake.. I can't tell much on the others..

Re: CSI: Club Stogie 2- Six Smokes, Six brands, Three fakes...

Cohiba: Fake band should have gold around the cohiba name

Romeo Julieta: fake no triple cap band seems off too

Bolivar: looks like a fake band because of the larger Habana font

the rest are real
ERDM -triple cap
H Upman triple cap kind of dark but
Punch looks good

But I'm guessing the proof is in the taste and the smell.

Re: CSI: Club Stogie 2- Six Smokes, Six brands, Three fakes...

Bolivar is fake – stuff under the Habana is the wrong color – should be red
Romeo y Julieta is fake – boarder is a solid line, it should be dots
H. Upmann is fake – not centered and the leaves are not crisp, kinda smudged.

Punch is real
El Ray del Munodo is real
Cohiba is real

H Upmann: band is off quite a bit

Bolivar: looks like a fake band because of the larger Habana font

Re: CSI: Club Stogie 2- Six Smokes, Six brands, Three fakes...

Romeo y Julieta - Fake, the label is all f'ed up, doesn't seem to be a triple cap
H. Upmann - Fake, the label is completely off center
Bolivar - Fake, the font is too thick, and the gold surrounding the picture is not right

Cohiba - Real, old label, triple cap
Punch - Real, you can see the trip cap in the first shot
ERDM - Real, label and cap look fine

Fakes..

ERDM - not enough detail on the band and a sloppy cap
H Upmann - wrapper looks too dark
Romeo - bands look too far off center

First you took the band off the Cohiba and placed it on the RYJ. You can see the wedding band. So I assume the RYJ is fake. RDM is real and the the punch is real. The H. Upman band looks fake nor does it match the cigar. The Bolivar band is contrived looking.

Re: CSI: Club Stogie 2- Six Smokes, Six brands, Three fakes...

Fauxhiba - Gold lacking this one I'm sure of
H Upmann - Triple cap is present, BUT band is blurry/not printed well
Boli - The "Habana" is the wrong font, and his tunic is the wrong color

Mmm.. opening my humi to play with my cohibas and bolis smells amazing
