Nancy's son sent her an email yesterday with this pic attached. A couple of close friends of his were each offered a watch by the friend's Dad, a Rolex and an Omega. He chose the Omega, she ended up with thr Rolex. Am I right in thinking that this is either a 5513 or 5517 with replacement bezel insert? She's bringing the watch in to work in a day or so, so he can take some HD pix of it and check the reference #.

Al- the hands and dial are fake IMHO and clearly insert isn't correct. I obviously can't say much about the watch but my guess is it has a fake case back as well. Sorry...

Fake dial, fake hands, fake bezel... and a new James Bond style NATO fitted.

Has all the makings of a recent fake Rolex milSub.

Not good.

I love the Oyster Date stamp on a non date. Did they only do that for the British Military.
