Is this Rolex genuine?
Hi, all :) I'm new here and was thinking of buying this - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...ksid=p3907.m29, do you reckon its genine?
I plan on taking it to a jeweller's afterwards to check it out, as paypal don't release the funds to the seller for such large transaction till 20 days afterwards - meaning clawing my money back shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, what do you experts think? It genuine? Thanks :) |

Hi, it looks ok to me but you might want to ask him if the dial has been refinished. and if it was serviced by rolex rather than an independent watchmaker.

Hi
It looks genuine, but for many that is not the only consideration. Some other things to consider are, does it have the original Rolex punched warranty certificate? Does it have the original Rolex boxes? There are no photographs of the caseback and the sides of the watch. Anyway, for all that if it is a watch that really makes you smile, it does looke to be quite a good looking TT. Good luck
