What is wrong with you? You blindly buy 2 16K watches and know nothing about the Brand. Wrong on some many levels....

Stop being paranoid. Your watch is 100% genuine - I guarantee it.

Wear it and enjoy it

Lots of people indeed MOST people buy watches (and other items) they know nothing about!

Do you really believe that out of the 1 million watches ROLEX make every year that most of their customers are "aficionados" - that know every detail of that model?

I fancy a Porsche but i don't even know what cc it is, and actually I don't care. I like it because of its looks!

Why can't you just be pleasant or helpful or ignore the post?

Agree...but eBay isn’t the place for them to shop due to all the scammers, fakers and worse on that platform.

Authorized dealers are the best bet for customers in that position.

The chances of getting a fake Porsche are infinitesimally small. Chances of AP or Rolex being fake are magnitudes higher. THAT'S why you need to educate yourself or buy from AD.
That movement pic does not look good.

I think this is a good fake. There's a piece of metal near the hairspring thats missing in OP's movement. The lines on rotor around birds tail and stars are wavy and poorly executed. The serial number and watch No. on caseback don't stand up to close examination either. Only way to be sure is get it authenticated by AP AD or contact the AD in Australia and have them check records.

Curious about that metal wire then. You can see it clearly in Tylers pic. Do your movements have the same ref? Did AP check the SN? Not sure how anyone can authenticate based solely on a few low rez grainy pics.

As I stated here and in your PMs to me - its genuine.

AP (and I can) tell immediately from the photos you sent, even poor ones.

You now have myself, another TRF member, a watchmaker stating GENUINE - we could all be wrong but NOT AP?
Its genuine!
