Rolex sea dweller James Cameron
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hi guys first post here , if not allowed please remove and apologises.
Been offered a James Cameron deep sea dweller.
It feels amazing quality even weighed it at 215g looks genuine but just not sure
Ref number is 116117 and number on rehaul is m646829.
Iv searched and it seems this number has been used on fakes. Is there anyway it can be genuine ? Few pics to help

travisb 13 January 2024 01:33 AM

Not the best quality pics but from these it looks off. The colors and proportions don't seem right. Any other details?

996marty 13 January 2024 01:42 AM

Pictures aren’t good enough strange angles instead of straight on shots. As mentioned it looks a little off

Rroobb11 13 January 2024 01:43 AM

Nothing else really. So hard to tell. I. Watched lots of videos and looked at it closely with magnifying glass. Think my guy instinct is fake , it just feels such good quality .

Will get better pictures

The reference number should be 116660 for that model.

slus 13 January 2024 02:06 AM

The crystal, bezel, date window and end link fitment all look off compared to my 126660, I don't think that is legit

Rroobb11 13 January 2024 02:07 AM

My gut feeling was fake but it feels such good quality . Thanks guys

brandrea 13 January 2024 02:10 AM

Out of curiosity … I assume this was a private sale?

BTW, welcome to the forum:cheers:

Rroobb11 13 January 2024 02:12 AM

I haven’t purchased it and not going to now . Yes private sale .

travisb 13 January 2024 03:18 AM

Walk away.

Megster 13 January 2024 05:59 AM

DeepSea text colour is off.The actual colour is Acid Green, a yellow green shade

Ferdelious 13 January 2024 06:28 AM

Obvious fake.

Good.
This is one to run away from. Not walk.
It's an obvious appalling fake just looking at the pics.
As Brian pointed out the reference number should be different among loads of other things.

Keep researching and definately don't rush into anything.
Get to know as much as you can about what reference you are actually looking for as the fakes can be extremely good.
This one is dodgy right from the start.

A good rule to follow is to buy the seller first and there are really good grey sellers out there that you can trust. You will possibly pay a premium through them but you will get what you are after.

Question.
Are you specifically after a James Cameron?

sien 13 January 2024 08:28 AM

I think you should walk away.

Patekfinder 13 January 2024 08:41 AM

Don’t buy anything unless it is a highly trusted seller.

Really bad fake.

Date display awful.

And date window position would be for 13xxx model but case back and crystal not consistent with that version.

And numerous other issues.

MichelleP 13 January 2024 09:40 AM

I would think you should be able to get one from an AD without too long on a wait.

Either the all black version or SD43 can be had from an AD.

JC little longer wait.

Good luck

There you go.

offrdmania 13 January 2024 10:33 AM

The first 2 pictures told me it was a fake

Calatrava r 14 January 2024 10:48 AM

Why go to all the trouble to make a fake and then put the wrong model number on it? That is the easiest thing to look up, get right and a complete give away if it's wrong.

Rolexwatchman 14 January 2024 10:37 PM

Sorry to say but the watch is fake, don’t need clearer pics to identify this one. Sorry bro

Michael1968 15 January 2024 05:13 AM

Fake

doneblouse 15 January 2024 05:03 PM

I would assume that you shouldn't have to wait too long to obtain one from an AD.
