Yes Jonathon,

You are being paranoid..

No Certificate of Authenticity can "authenticate" a watch.

An authentic Rolex does not come with such a document unless it is provided separately by the dealer.

If the watch is 10 years old, it is in need of a Service, so plan to send it in and for about a550 bucks you will get a practically like new Rolex back with "authentic" Rolex service papers in your name and a new 1 year warranty..

Just take the watch to an AD and have them authenticate it. The usual charge is $50 if not free.
