Says in description genuine rolex dial customised green with aftermarket WG accents, complete with aftermarket bezel/insert....interesting, although on the plus side it comes with a wooden box or if you're felling flush you can purchase a rolex box for a fee

Yup, just another well-worn/clapped-out 16610 that's been "customized" with a fake dial and bezel insert (and inflated price-tag).
The go-to combo for these clowns is usually green dial/insert or blue dial/insert to mimic the later "Hulk" and "Smurf" references.

Sadly, these are very prevalent on eBay.

This is the first time I've seen this from a B&M watch seller. Usually they just add the bling bezels/dials. Very disturbing.
