Likely Scammer
This seller is either a scammer or he stole picture from another person.
Look closely, the first two pictures vs. the last three: they are not the same watch!!

Definitely stolen photographs in pics 3,4, 5.
This does not mean the watch or the first two are not original. He does say papers etc provided. If interested, I would send him a message asking why the other photos were used and can he do a face to face exchange if you win the auction. If the watch is fake he will run away from this suggestion. If it is real you may get a good deal. keep us posted. |

I'd say its misrepresentation of the product, pot luck on which set of photos are the real watch is there is one.
I'll contact the seller and see what he has to say. watch this space. His answer will determine the longevity of this auction.

Stay clear

Ebay is not for Rolex. If you cannot get one here, go to Aramadale watch Company in Melb. They have a fair selection at fair prices. Plus they give you a full warranty that the watch is real. |

No year of production on the listing.
Maybe someone can contact him to make this listing right, if he is legitimate! |

Have contacted the seller with the following message just after 2pm this afternoon (over 9 hours ago) and there has been no reply:
Hi Posesed, Just looking at your auction, you seem to have two different versions of a Rolex GMT II photographed, one pre 90's the other more modern, can you let me know which one is up for auction?? and maybe remove the other photos as this is misleading, cheers, Dave.
