Rolex Jubilee Genuine?

Hey TRF, so i'm deciding on a Jubilee now for my vintage 1601, since I got an oyster on my 16013. Its going for around $600, is it worth it and is this authentic genuine Rolex? The seller says it is 80% condition, agree?

You should ask for a pic holding it sideways to see how much stretch there is. If it’s really stretched you’ll pay another $250 to Michael Young to fix it.

Definitely not 80%... the gold links are warped in the corners and the pins are exposed... bracelet is genuine 14k/SS from the 70s and it shows...

That condition is fairly typical for a Rolex USA oval centerlinked gold and SS folded Jubilee bracelet. It is a comfortable band you should enjoy. Be aware that keeping it original could become a expensive if it ever failed.
