What a clown: Buy Mercedes & Get DSSD for FREE!

Wow,

This is some clever advertizing.The guy is trying to fool people or what?
"....plus Rolex Sea Dweller Benz Edition Custom ordered through Mercedes Benz. "

"....and it came with the Rolex Sea Dweller Mercedes Edition Watch with the Mercedes Logo Hour Dial"



But the DSSD's authenticity seems questionable.
Reason: The letter K in the word "ringlock", usually lines straight up with the
little vertical line under the 6'0clock marker --- in the ad, the 'K' is offset a little from that
vertical marker. In fact, the letter C seemes to be under the vertical line under the
6'0 clock marker --- that's some serious deviation ....

100% FAKE ....

Infact after analyzing the dial in detail, the entire writing on the ring: "original gas escape......" is off ....

So this guy is lying that he got the watch from the dealership because a dealership would never jeopradize itself on fakes.

If he was giving away an original DSSD, this would have been a funny way to advertize... but since the watch is a fake, and he claims he ordered it through MB, that'even bigger lie...this whole thing changes from an innocent funny ad to outright deception ....

This is the line that slays me.
...it came with the Rolex Sea Dweller Mercedes Edition Watch with the Mercedes Logo Hour Dial.
It's a great looking car, but anyone who would try to pawn off any fake Rolex as a Mercedes edition because of the hour hand has to be off his rocker.

Why wreck his chances of selling the car with an offer like that?

If he can't be honest about the watch, what's he hiding about the car.

I can hardly believe he has ten bids, because it's so obviously a swindle.

Take a look at the ebay motor vehicle report.

Good God! This guy is desperate.
