Rolex 1655, all thoughts are welcomed and highly appre

Good morning everyone,

I have found this 1655 on eBay, any thoughts are highly appreciated, and if possible an approx value for those who are following this model in the market.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Watch...sAAOSwPfBduLk9

If this watch is already been discussed in another post, kindly direct me to it and disregard this post.

Many thanks.

Price would be a red flag for me, but I am no expert. I only wear one

Bracelets and endlinks are very hard to find, took me almost two years to find a second bracelet.
Price was €750 and had to add two links, that I bought from the AD
when I had it serviced. Links were €75/pc.

Service after 13 years of almost daily use set me back €1200,-

It is a beautiful watch that I wear with almost as much pleasure as my own EXPII.

Numerous red flags on this watch and the description in the listing.

Case back definitely looks fake. And once you confirm one part is fake, what does that tell you about the rest?

Doesn't look too good. Bezel is definitely aftermarket.
