Buying my first Rolex
Hey Guys looking to purchase my first Rolex, there is a local charity auction and I noticed they have a Submariner coming up. They said they don't know if its authenticate or not I looked at some YouTube videos to see if it could be fake but so far it checks out... I could be wrong, can someone please tell me what to look for, I got some images below

As your first Rolex, Pls dont risk your money looking at auctions or ebay etc. Buy from a trusted source.

Forum rule #6:
6. Any casual allegation that a watch is a 'fake' should be justified otherwise the post may be removed. This should be achieved whilst not going into too much detail, good luck with that :) Agreed that you should buy from an authorized AD, as fleecebay, etc. are minefields filled with junk. Do not take the risk, which is large.

Don't do it, pass. Buy from a trusted seller here or an AD.

Nothing wrong with eBay as you have guarantees including PayPal or cc. Have watch checked out by trusted watch repair store. I’ve bought some amazing pieces. No guarantees when buying on forums.

You can tell for sure by looking at the serial number. How it is placed on the rehaut.

Run away very fast from any seller who says that he doesn't know if a watch is authentic.
That's the oldest line in the world to skirt ebay rules and we've seen it a million times in the Watch Out section. Another hard and fast rule is to never buy from someone who sends lousy pictures of a watch. Both of those apply to this watch, but really the first is enough to look elsewhere.
