AUTHENTICATION PLEASE! Rolex 16613 Bluesy!
Hello everyone! I'm new to the forums and a fellow watch lover. I'm in a bit of a pickle scratching my head thinking about the authenticity of my watch that I bought second hand without papers but has been appraised by a ben bridge for insurance which was it's only form of papers. I definitely payed the authentic price for this watch a little under grey market but I would like a second opinion of authenticity. To me everything looks good, the previous owner just took it into service before I bought the watch and it has been polished (unfortunately) but hasn't been polished that bad for a 20+ year old watch. I don't have a watchmakers tools to remove the bracelet to show in between the lugs but I've put some close up pictures of the watch attached to the thread. Rolex experts please do your magic! I want to finally sleep at night knowing I have an authentic Rolex and didn't get scammed! Thank you!

Pics suck, but dial and print looks correct, haven’t seen a good fake 16613lb before I’m 99% you’re safe. You said it was serviced, if it was done by RSC then you are golden.

You can substitute a toothpick for watchmaker tools to remove the bracelet.
Watch in pics looks fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you for your replies! I will update the pictures once I get home with better lighting! I'll also try to take a picture of the lugs. Do the 5 digit folded endlinks have any numbers I should take a picture of that I'm not aware of? Or what other pictures can I take that would help in authenticating? Thanks!

looks good AND if it went through service as you say and you can confirm it then that answers your question.

The service center was an independent watch maker and unfortunately not a RSC :( what should I take better pictures of on the watch?

Forum rules dictate that we can't say why or how, but it looks good to me
