I have seen Rolex pocket watch movements (internet pictures) that look similar. And, this is supposed to be from a pocket watch movement. I have exchanged messages with the seller and he says that it is a Rolex movement.

I know that no other part of the watch is authentic - but I like the rest of the watch..... if it is an authentic movement.

I am too new to post links but the seller is on Ebay and his store is Patina-Original

I recently had a Waltham wrist watch that was once a pocket watch, it was common in around the 1930's to convert these, Id be interested to learn of when the seller believes this watch movement dates from, you can then advise the seller you've been in touch with Rolex....... wait and see what the response is. personally id avoid buying Rolex's from Ebay. be lucky "H"
