I’ve sold eight watches on eBay this year, none over a thousand dollars. They ran only one through their third-party verification process, a Helm Komodo that sells new for about $350 that I sold for $500 shipped due to the long wait list for new. When we asked eBay why the Helm specifically they said they get a lot of fakes of that watch which sounds insane based on the low cost. Nonetheless it appears they have a “hot list” for frequently faked watches, no doubt Rolex is on it. Having said all that I wouldn’t buy or sell anything of significant value on eBay. I only sold watches there that could afford to lose.
