Hmmm, I can't understand why you would pay "top dollar" to a source you do not trust, but it is done, so now the watch.
The leather wallet isn't really leather, and Rolex packaging isn't the among the best but I'd be more concerned about the watch.

Looks to be an M or V serial from the dial but pictures aren't really good. those are a couple years old now and would require special circumstances to still be BNIB at a dealer. While this isn't a big deal, what is interesting is that the watch doesn't have any factory stickers(from the pictures shown) on it so I doubt it was new.
The pearl looks wrong, and so do the end links, but it could just be the pictures.
Post better pictures.
As far as the clasp goes, a screw should not be coming out but it is possible if someone tampered with it. The writing should be clear, thin and black, doesn't look right, but again need better pics.

I would return it and deal with a real Rolex authorized AD.
