Stunning rolex oyster perpetual ladies w/ diamond bezel

Smells...., two different pics one is bad and the other one taken from the web..., the serial number is probably the reference number but 78343 ??

Thanks for the links.

...this is a SCAM...time for the TIN BIN...



...18 feedback seller.

...selling a purported Rolex.

...2 photos. The gallery photo is OUT-OF-FOCUS. The 2nd photo appears to be stolen.

...based upon the gallery photo, you CANNOT tell if the watch pictured is a Timex, Gruen, Seiko, or Rolex.

...seller says: "This watch features a 28 jewels Swiss made self-winding windup movement with serial number 78343".

...HOWEVER, 78343 is a BRACELET reference number.

...the bracelet pictured in the 2nd photo is a 7834, tapered, folded link band!

...reference number 78343 is a reference number for a SCREW LINK band!

...this listing has the earmarks of a SCAM/COUNTERFEIT.

...any BUYER will most likely receive a COUNTERFEIT watch!

...NO proof of authenticity.

I've sent her an email asking about the double post selling twice. We'll see if she replies or has an excuse.
