16618 on ebay

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Mens-1...item3f250b5120


Wanted to get you guys opinion on this watch. I am looking to buy a 16618 and I thought this one looked nice. Does it look legit? I am not too familiar with what to look for on 16618's.

I emailed the seller and he said the watch is 100% original and mint. He had it serviced by his rolex certified watchmakes. Has papers but no box.

Would like TRF's professional opinion.
thanks in advanced.

the watch is original but it is not the best example, it is well overpolished in a few places, no chamfers left, but worse, look at the springbars, they are protruding, the lug has become so thin from overpolishing they stick out now, the clasp symbol is quite worn also, up to you he is asking top dollar for not a prime example imho.
