Authenticity of Rolex Sub 16618 bracelet
Hello all, I need a bit of advice. I maybe in the market for a Sub 16618 but I am having second thoughts now that I’ve seen the bracelet. My concern is there is no Rolex Crown on the clasp could this still be genuine.

If it has been polished by a heavy hand, yes it could be genuine. I have seen many 16618's badly polished. The coronet on the buckle certainly can be polished smooth. Pics would help.

How many adjustment holes do 5 digit clasps have ?

It has been heavily polished or polished many many times in its life. I have seen loads where the coronet has partly worn but not actually worn away - it’s a good way to tell how used the watch actually is.

I don’t doubt the authenticity. Seller seems to have good reviews.
