Looks fake to me, Crown is way too big only just fits in the crown guards and date magnification is way off, rehaut seems to be typical of fakes.

how did I go TTG? Am I getting a bit better :-)

Cheers M8

Dave.

Well good eyes, it is a definite fake (a cheap one at that). I know my eyes are bad, but I do not see a rehaut.

It also claims to have the Rolex logo etched.

I cant see the etching on the photos, blurred as hell, usually stands out like a sore thumb on fakes, and the hosted photos are gone so there some monkey business on this one :-)

...it DEFINITELY...

...has a COUNTERFEIT band.

...there are NO 4 digit SCREW link bands made by Rolex.

...has the telltale circle on the bottom of the crown on the buckle.

...the screw heads are TOO LARGE for them to be genuine Rolex.

...mmmm, wonder what LADY CASPER would think about this one??

Stan.
