Rolex Day Date Oyster Quartz 18ct Gold 19018

Hello all,
I've always fancied an OysterQuartz as part of my collection, but am much less familiar with them, from an authenticity point of view.
This one looks good/genuine, to me.
Does anyone think otherwise?

I'm not sure the middle pic is even the same watch as the other two pics. there appears to be a couple of marks on the upper left lug and lower right lug in one pic, and then there's nothing in another pic. I don't see anything that stands out as "off" but i'd be wanting MUCH better pics if you're buying this without seeing it in person.

I wouldn't buy that one.

Super over polished, seller won't accept returns, your rights via EU consumer protection law doesn't apply, and all you'll have is eBay limited support.

Seller description is so minimal that you'll never prevail under "not as described" appeal to eBay.

Genuine, but in an industrial waste stage

This watch should look like this in a good condition:



But that piece on Ebay is very far far away from "fair" stage. In other words, it is hell lot overpriced.

Thank you for all the insights...

I'm thinking this now, which looks in really good condition, and likely newer...

OysterQuartz was never counterfeited to my knowledge, and neither were any solid 18K gold watches. There is no market for 18K solid fakes.

Well, this looks good, although it is only a Datejust and not a Day-Date. This is a relatively common model, but not the most popular, so you can choose from many at a good price In the same time, it seems to me, that it is more popular in the UK then almost anywhere else, so maybe it would worth for you to can check the international sellers offers too.
