I think in the bottom pic you can just make out the laser etching (not properly engraved) between the lugs. Hard to see it though.

Not good enough pics or info to pass judgement.

I do not understand that this seller did not know it was a fake, he has some real Rolex parts.

The clown knows what he is selling; "for sale is a used replacement case for rolex 5513 including crystal. it looks authentic to me but please have a look at the pictures - so sold as is!" "NO RETURNS."

This is why eBay is not what it used to be and never will be again. They don't care as long as they get their cut of the action. Look at the pictures as you are buying a fake; I am an honest seller I told you.

Look at the eBay hustle long enough and the scams just scream SCAM.
