"All Original"

This expression "All Original" can be misleading.

It may convey the impression that the main aspects of the watch are 'original' to the watch from the time when it was first shipped from the factory to the retailer.

The seller has otherwise said that the watch is 100% Authentic Rolex.

It may be 100% authentic but it is not 'all original' when those two statements are intended to convey the misleading impression that the watch is the same as when it was shipped from the factory without Rolex replacement parts.

The watch is marked as being a 3million serial number.

The watch has a luminova dial (not tritium) and not 'original' from the factory with the watch. The hands may similarly be luminova replacement hands.

Just something to keep in mind as a luminova dial and hands substantially impacts upon the collectability and price of the original 1655 3million serial model.
