Everything seems fine - but I'd get it checked anyway. I'd certainly sleep better :)

I'm definetely going to check between the lugs later on. The watch came with 2 papers with the same serial number. If you look real closely at the 6 position you can barely make out the crown. I am aware the fakes can duplicate that.

I checked the serial number between the lugs and it does match the papers. Now all I need is to find a place to get the watch overhauled. Any recommendations that are more affordable than the Rolex owned service centers?

If yo ucan barely see it thats a good sign on the fakes its quite easy to see.
