Becker Time & Ebay???

Does anyone have any experience with the seller Becker Time on Ebay?

Looks like a pretty legit seller with a high rating.

Looking for a silver DateJust in the 1.5-2K range. I see a couple, how do you guys feeling about that price and value?

Thank!!!!

The thing about Beckertime is that they usually use off-brand bracelets so while the watch may be a Rolex, the band may not be (and will not have the Rolex coronet/symbol on it). They'll put a disclaimer in their ads, but just be sure to review everything so you know going in.

The auction has ended but item looks legit...this really belongs in the Watch Out! Section if you question the authenticity of the watch or seller.

I have dealt with Matt from Beckertime before. I didn't go through ebay and I had a good experience.

the bands they use are $50... always take that into consideration and deduct $500 min from comparable ones with real rolex bands, boxes etc...

Did you look at this one beforehand?
It appears to be 100% original

They do but they usually say that in the description. I know Matthew personally and have nothing but good deals with him. Email or call they will tell you anything you want to know
