Wait, why? Is there something misleading in his description? Are some parts not genuine? This seems like a case of buyer, do your research not outright fraud.

This is a complete franken watch made up of parts, maybe genuine or counterfeit, but no Rolex ever left the factory looking like this.

The listing is misleading at best.

No trademark infringement is apparent.

...hmmm...

...this seller is NOT FORTHCOMING about the obvious conversion to a 2-tone.

...does the seller know it?? Most likely, considering his sale of many other

...I find it UNFAIR for any unknowing and uneducated buyer to have to learn the hard way about this watch.

...it could be assumed that the 2-tone parts could be counterfeit-MAYBE, or MAYBE NOT.

...the seller has an OBLIGATION to divulge any info otherwise known about the watch, which is quite obvious.
