    I’ve just sent him a message:

    Hi,

    Just a quick note of advice. This watch is not a genuine Rolex. It is a fake. I hope that you didn’t pay a lot of money for it.

    I hope this isn’t too much of a shock for you.

    Take care

    Dave.


    Let’s see how he responds...

    I bet it says '16234' on the green sticker.
    And it's 18K, wow.

    He's replied.

    'I doubt it is as it’s just out of Rolex for bezel'

    Jesus 😂

    Looks like he sold the watch at the beginning of April although that was a "dateless with a date". Numpty has been reported.

    I've replied:

    Oh, my mistake.
    I'm not really an expert!

    Did they service it at the same time or just do the bezel?


    Might try and string him along for a bit.

    Bought a watch in 2010 and then is told afterward it's the newer model. That must have been pleasing news.

    It's one of those very special SS models that is also '18k'!

    EDIT: it's been pulled by eBay.

    In the interests of science, I shall post my correspondence with the gentleman:

    Firstly, I said;



    He replied:



    Me;



    Him;



    Sensing some bobbins:



    The bloody front of the guy!;



    Decide to ask the question...



    He takes the bait;



    I replied;



    I am currently waiting for my email... :)

    Sadly none of those are legible Dave (at least on the TZ app) - think it was too compressed when uploading?

    I can give credit to people who write as they speak, but this guy takes idiolect to a new level.

    Encountered a fake that had both punched papers and green card, the more warranty cards it has the more legit it will seem I guess :D

    "Hi, 18 carat stainless steel is very very rare, do you have more information on your totally genuine 18k stainless steel Rolex? "

    He’s swapped the picture.
    He stole my pictures when I had my deepsea up for sale a week ago.
    Pictures listed probably all from different watches

    There’s a possibility I have all his details as he enquired about my buying my deepsea and he gave me his details then stole the pictures. Most probably the ID is fake !!
