Excellent find, this seller has a bit of history on here -

Show me the diamonds!!!

Originally this seller was using stolen photos and now looks like he's using real photos.

Here is the link.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...0%3D%26fvi%3D1

Wrong box and accessories, they are early 90's and the watch is listed as a 2005. The sticker on the case back looks genuine, and worn, as that from a 1990's Submariner. Maybe he got the year of the watch wrong.

From other posts here, sounds like there has been issues with this seller before.

the think that tipped me off was the serial number E dates back to 1990 and he says the watch is from 2005 and of course the pictures do not look right either.

I have a question is it correct after 15 posts that I can put up a rolex for sale?? thanks olvier

Hi Oliver, if you pop over to the sales theres a sticky there from Paulie:

"Forum members must be a member for a minimum of 15 days and have 15 proper posts prior to posting an item on the sales board."

..."E" serial is 1991 1/2...

...NOT 2005 as seller says in the text.
