Did I get screwed?
Just bought a pre-owned m-serial Deepsea but the bracelet has markings with 93250, is this accurate? What should the markings be on the bracelet? Are there are telltale signs that this is a fake?
Thanks. |

That's one of them. A lot more, got any pics ? No model number markings on the bracelet you can see, they are under the endpieces.

Did you follow the cardinal rule of buying a pre-owned Rolex and "buy the seller"??

a 93250 is the bracelet for a Sub 16610 with a 20mm lug width and will not fit a Deepsea with it's 21mm lug width..
Unscrew the crown and pull the stem out to the hand setting position. Turning the crown clockwise on a Deepsea should also rotate the hands clockwise..

When I turn the crown clockwise the hands to counterclock wise... so this is definitely a fake? I'm not too worried as I paid with credit card... Just a hassle...
Thanks all for helping! |

Why does everybody around here ask AFTER they have made the purchase

Touche...tell him to give you a refund, when it is secured in your bank account send the watch back and report him anyway.
He knew the watch was shit or else he wouldnt have taken the pictures from atop a tree
