Rolex YACHTMASTER 116622 Mens Steel & Platinum Rhodium Dial 40MM

Please report this watch.

Seller states "I do not know if it is authentic, it didn't come with paperwork & I don't know Rolexes. " This is a authenticity disclaimer and is against ebay policy.

I am always distrustful of such poor images.

If you read the description, "this watch was removed and now relisted", again not a good sign.

Yep. Seller has a feedback of TWO. And that is as a BUYER, not a SELLER. Only a fool would trust Rolex money to someone with that feedback, IMO.

It is far too hard to tell if it is authentic from the photos but her story sounds genuine.. Either way there is no way on this earth or any other I would ever bid on it.

The one thing...how could this seller mistake the dial as BLUE originally. The dial is definitely not BLUE ...Grey at best if she didn't know the correct color.

I'd be wary of someone claiming not to know Rolex watches, but knowing that the part the serial # is engraved on is called the rehaut, ( I'm assuming her auto correct changed that to "Renault"), and that they would accidentally use the term "random serial" number instead of just "serial" number.
