...mmmmmmm...

...I have sent the following message to the seller-we will see how he responds:

Dear wristrolex,
Hello.

Is the serial number 737,748 or a different one??

IF this is 737,748, or one close to this number, then the case is counterfeit and you should consider ending the listing.

One other way to tell if this watch is genuine, is the length of the CENTER arm of the letter "E" in STAINLESS STEEL. On counterfeits the center arms will be the SAME length as the top and bottom of the letter.

IF the serial# is a different one, please provide the last three digits for me.

Sincerely, Stan.

Stan,

I see that the seller ended the auction....I don't think the rose dialed watches were ever issued in blue dials? Also, the bezel insert looks el fake-o to me.

Aloha,
Glenn

...well, there is hope for humanity...

...I guess his watch was was one with a 737,748 SN and did the honorable thing....

...you can take ANY watch, ANY brand, and refinish a dial ANY WAY you want. Some time in that counterfeit's life, someone created that colored dial.

...hell, even the fakes did NOT come with dials like that.

Stan.
