ROLEX 5513 Full Set

Not convinced of all this : Bezel should have thick font insert if 100% original as claimed by seller .
Seller claims this is a all original 5513 , box papers the lot ... only one picture ?
3 people bidding ?

I don't believe listings should be pulled if there is doubt.

Just wondering why this listing was pulled.

The watch imho appears authentic and so does the bezel, albeit a service replacement........

Rolex could have routinely changed the bezel insert during a service....back in the day when vintage bezel's were not really recognised and most owners probably weren't enthusiasts.
Don't know seller's feedback.
1 photo is a concern.

The seller claimed it was 100% authentic and came with all box and documents . Going as far as stating that "other" 5513 's not as complete and original were fetching over 4500 euro .. As Stevo also correctly points out the fact to use one single picture when claiming all the boxes , papers etc is rather suspicious for a relatively experienced seller .
The seller is a second hand car trader . with 48 feedback .
I did notify Ebay FRance saying that the bezel insert was not original to the watch and at best an original service replacement . That seemed enough for them to pull it , unless there were other reports .
