    I feel like when you have to ask...usually seems to be fake. Get a pic up though, and the experts will help you out.

    I tried all the br, right and left arrow instructions. Maybe if I could email this pic to someone with a freakin clue I could get this pic posted. If there's an emoticon that depicts absolute frustration, consider it posted RIGHT HERE because if it was easy, I couldn't do it. Apologies

    I'm not familiar with this brand. A few days ago someone posted a pic of a Cohiba band and a few of the trained eyes here were able to tell based on dots and other markings

    honestly just get yourself a photobucket. it makes it SOOOOO much easier. Once it is in photobucket all you have to do is grab the HTML link and post it

    I do have photobucket. For whatever reason I just have not figured out how to post a pic. It all seems so simple. I'm tired of being a wooden boy.

    Wasn't sure. This band goes around a cigar that was gifted to me from a friend that just got back from a cruise. He wasn't sure either. I appreciate you giving it the eye catfish. Much appreciated.

    Couldn't it be a real band on a fake cigar? Might want to post a pic of that as well.

    RG about 46. Length 5 and 3/4. I did a quick side by side to a 5 Vegas Classic corona. The Hoyo is a tad thicker and 1/4 longer

    well, that would be an epicure 1 I think 5.5x46. However, the foot should be cut. Does it have a triple cap? That band is for 50/52rg as well, 46 might be smaller.

    Also, take a picture of the foot straight on. Post that with pics of the cap.

    I love it when Dustin goes all super detective on the island cigars. True BOTL right there fellas. Should have seen him on twitter last week, he was going nuclear. Another reason I love this place.

    I deleted the other pic. I grabbed the wrong unbanded stick. Here's a new pic next to the 5VC

    Agreed. If it's fake they can sniff it out

    My two cents? Probably fake with a legit band. That band is for 50-52 RG. The foot looks like a proper bunch, but that wrapper an cap look terrible. That's not a triple cap IMO, which would immediately denote a fake. I'll send you a real one, been meaning to send ya something anyways dude.

    And I just checked an EE which is 50-52, has the same band, and a panetela which is 40. I've seen some good bands as of late, and that's a good one, but the cigar is not. No way that cap and wrapper are made isom.
