Amazing "Rolex" - Step right up and buy it now for only $9925 - definitely legit

The starting bid amount is $7135... He won't take anything less than that!

"This watch was inherited by grandfather. I do not know all the specific details of the actual purchase. I’ve been in possession of this watch for over 20 years. Beautiful piece and always get compliments. Small scratches on the magnified glass and watch band. Fully Functional smooth rotation operates following watch movement."

It is hard for a novice to tell what might be wrong with this watch.

Here is the link: "Rolex" "Yacthmaster submarine"

Now I will let the fake watch warriors here do what you do.

I'm not sure if there is any stainless steel on that watch or if it is all pot metal.

And I have one!
It was not the very first fully "hermetic" watch - DEPOLLIER did have one earlier.
Also the original patent was by GRUEN in 1918(a) and 1919(g), Followed by Jean Finger identical patent in 1921
But its is a fantastic piece.
Mine is 18kt and my most exotic watch

David, very nice.
Mine is a 1921 by Jean Finger of EBERHARD.
I know well the chart you show, but sadly that is ROLEX view of history and as they say "The victor rights the history"

For certain EXACT same models were patented already in 1918, then 1921 and last Rolex in 1922.
I have all the patents (and adverts)

Not detracting from your piece - they are fantastic pieces of Horolgy.

Thanks For Posting

Adam
