double red steal dweller

have a look at the dial on this double red,there is no way that dial is authentic.
compared to a real mark V it is way.I will try and find some proper examples to help people distinguish the differences.there are also some issues regarding the case back,serial numbers,crown guards etc....

He makes the claim in the listing:

"THE DIAL WAS CHANGED BY ROLEX TO A MARK V DOUBLE RED DIAL AND THE BEZEL INSERT WAS CHANGED OUT BY ROLEX AT THE SAME TIME. ALL OF WHICH WERE DONE BY ROLEX, BECAUSE OF THIS, SOTHEBY'S WOULD NOT AUCTION THE WATCH. THEY DID AUTHENTICATE IT AND DESCRIBE IT AS AN EXTREMELY RARE AND KEY PIECE TO ANY WATCH COLLECTOR'S COLLECTION!"

He's offering a 110% refund if it's not authentic. Buy it for $100000 and send it back to him for a fast $10k.

Err buddy Steve...you are right...the Dial is FAKE...n the case
n caseback do not belong to 1665 Double Red SD...!!!

Nevertheless...Orchi doesn't like the comment from this other buddy...
in the other forum...

http://www.network54.com/Forum/20759...+genuine+rolex..

Is he not saying that there are "those so called Rolex expert" taking down
plenty of genuine Rolex watches in eBay...??? possibly insinuating that
genuine Rolex watch listings have been wrongly reported to eBay n indirectly
brought down by members of this forum...???

So buddies...the question is...has anyone of us been reporting on genuine
Rolex watch listings in eBay...wrongly?

hey buddy orchi,
I rarely if ever pay attention to what others say.those who judge us do not matter,and those that do matter never judge.
as Einstein said,"arrows of hate have been cast at me as well,but they seem to pass threw me as if from another dimension."*
*taken from Einsteins book "out of my later years"
