Here's a fishy two-tone sub...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Submar...item231945181d

If you're interested in this auction from seller "widowsun9", be aware that he's re-used pictures in this auction of another Submariner he previously sold last November.

Good point, I've changed my posting to contain 'just the facts' which are that he's re-used pictures from his previous auction of a different watch.

I thought these pictures looked familiar.

One thing for sure is that the pictures are meant to obscure details that one must look for in terms of authenticity, when pictures are all you have to go by.

That alone is a huge red flag.
