Help verify authencity of Submariner

Perusing around craigslist and found this piece for quite a deal. I'm trying to justify that its the holiday season, which maybe people might be tight on cash; so they're looking for a quick sale, or maybe this is a fake/stolen piece.

FYI: No box, card, or papers.

I will definitely have that person meet me a the Rolex boutique in Houston for authenticity if this pans out. Thank you in advance!

I originally purchased my 116610LV from Sohail a few years back. I've just been shopping around, and found this.

Thank you for your prompt responses, but may I ask what gave it away; other than the fact that it doesn't come with a box, card, or paperwork?

There are a lot of issues with it. Just take a careful look at this aside a photo of a real submariner.

Yeah I was comparing my hulk with that of the picture, and noticed the subtle irregularities. Well, I guess it was too good to be true. Hopefully some sucker isn't going to fall for it. Thanks guys!

No one sells cheap Rolex . If they want a quick sale they would go into a jeweller or pawnbroker and take cash the same day not mess about on Craigslist !

This has absolutely nothing to do with it being a fake...
