Rolex DateJust Purchase (eBay)
I have agreed to purchase the below watch from eBay subject to having it authenticated at a watch maker.
The seller seems like a genuine watch enthusiast and has owned the watch from new. He is happy to meet me at my place of choice for a F2F and authentication along with providIng ID confirming who he is etc.
As a first watch purchase from eBay I am obviously slightly nervous with some of the horror stories I have read. I just wondered if there is anything else / checks I should be doing.
The watch was also serviced last year at RSC and comes with receipt and service card.
Some images of the watch, appreciate they are not the best of images. Any thoughts?

Contact the original AD and ask if they have a record of selling the watch from new. They won’t say who to as GDPR but they *may* confirm they sold it.
It’s something, if not much.
I did this once and the AD actually said the region in which the buyer lived as it was quite a distance from the AD store. It matched with the ID the seller gave me. They were very helpful.
