Hey guys, I posted these pics before and everybody said it was authentic with just hollow links, but real 18k solid gold. I just added newer pics because I now received the item. So I just wanted to get some feedback or opinion on why it is now counterfeit after it was authenticate prior to purchase. Is it legit genuine rolex product or fake/counterfeit? Thanks.

Hmmm, maybe a franken-bracelet, lol.

The 455B end-piece is fake, as those only correspond with two-tone Jubilee bracelets, AFAIK. I believe the other (458B) end-piece is correct.
The clasp looks OK, but the bracelet itself is a little suspect. It may be fine as well, but the one's I've seen have a slightly different font to one or more of the digits stamped in the end-link.
Also, it's clearly had a bad refinish/over-polish job.

lol, I saw the 455B too. The 455B wasnt very clear in the original thread from a couple months ago. Only the 458B was legible then.

Thanks for the honesty. Yeah now I'm skeptical about this the last post has 458 and before shipping out the last pics show 455. Kind of worries me to have just one end link fake and the rest is authentic. The guy has good feedback on eBay, with Rolex products but this one is kind of sketch to me. I'm going to return it for a full refund or do you think the oyster is authentic except for that one link? Thanks.

Clasp is , the best way to tell is remove a screw and send me or post a pic to see if the links section is ok
