116613LN authentic?

Hey y’all! Looking at this listing on eBay. What’s your take authentic? I’ve been messaging buyer and he wants to sell to me at a really low cost. I’m well aware of PayPal scams so please do not lecture me on that! Thank you

If you go through eBay & PayPal, you'll be protected.

His feedback looks suspect. He’s been trading on eBay about a week and he’s only sold 3 Rolex Boxes all to the same person who’s left him duplicated feedback.

I’d leave well alone personally. Unless picking up.

Someone just got ripped off on here. Probably the same watch! PayPal protected him but I sure it was a horrifying experience. The case was actually a 116610 and everything gold was probably aftermarket or fake.

I’d run like hell if I was you. Spend the money and do it right. A cheap watch is exactly that, a cheap watch.

I’m passing on it. Who ever takes the risk and does get for cheap and it’s authentic is getting a really good deal.

There’s a separate subforum for these types of questions.

‘wants to sell to me at a really low cost’....
do you actually need to ask how ridiculous that sounds?
For the nth time, to any other prospective ‘it’s a bargain is it real?’ posters

I was ripped off on ebay about a month ago. Ad and watch were eerily similar.

BTW, the P serial number on that card dates to 2000, doesn't it? Too old for a six digit reference I believe. (Or might that be a random?)

Smells like a scam to me; glad you are staying away.

It's an eight digit, random serial number. No way to date it.

It IS an 8 digit serial number correct and should be random, but that looks very like the old 7 digit numbers.
I wonder if Rolex use so "un random" serial numbers??

Whatever you would have to be crazy to buy that based on a zero seller and useless photos
