One for all the Sea Dweller Fans

Was browsing Ebay today, and stumbled accross this Rolex Sea Dweller clock/monument thing. I hope it's authentic?

It looks pretty cool, looks like it will fetch a fair price too.

There's still 4 days to go on the bidding, and it's up to about $450 U.S.

I doubt its authentic...but you never know. I would have preferred it with the correct color dial....which is what leads me to believe it did not come from Rolex.

I wonder who can tell us if it's authentic? The people bidding on Ebay for it, must think it is.

It would have looked better with a black dial

The bidding on this has now gone past $1000 US! I sure hope it's authentic.
