Hard to tell, but i'm sure our resident experts will chime in shortly, all I can say is, buy the seller.

Both look fine to me, but I'd probably go for the first one.

Hello Alex
I would PASS on both.  Both dials are redone. Coronets on both are horrible, and to close to the top. Hands on the first are questionable too. I would save my money on better original examples.  John. |

I'm not Rolex expert. But my advice is, don't buy via net.

If there's ever a question about authenticity in the thread it should be posted in WATCHOUT.
So off we go there. |

Simple question. If there's even the smallest element of doubt, why would you risk it? JJ

first one is fine,
second one has non-original hands and dial is re-done. pass on second one. as far as buying via the net-I do it everyday,and the vast majority of transactions go perfectly.so dont be scared to do business on-line,just dont get greedy and overlook obvious clues that something is not right. |

The dial has been redone on both. Not what I'd go for, but it's not like he or she is trying to hide it.
