Listed on the "Bay." Opening bid was $00.99 ...........

Link to watch and some pics : http://www.ebay.com/itm/120862851293...84.m1438.l2649 The dial just isn't right to my eyes for starters.

The script looks really glossy....hmmm

That and the dial looks like carbon fiber. Otoh, the pics may have been taken by a phone camera. The starting bid is what really scares me.

I've already asked the seller a ton of questions. Wish some of the regulars would ask the seller what kind of battery it takes ................

T-Rip · 21 February 2012, 03:00 PM

After going to the link I would fall for it. Based on the story, not the seller...

MikeyTX · 21 February 2012, 03:05 PM

Uh huh. He told me that the initials on the case back are his. Not formal engraving, just etched by him using a scratch awl. Now what kind of dummy does that to a $6 k Rolex ? Also told me he sold the box and papers on eBay a while back. Nuts I say.

Good call...yeah I agree 100%..

I bet it was his dead uncles too..

MoBe · 21 February 2012, 03:18 PM

Yup,needs to be flushed!

FNFZ4 · 21 February 2012, 04:35 PM

The Crown on the Dial is huge. as a guide, the crown always fits inside the 12 hour marker triangle. the second hand looks too long. the crown is WAY too large. It looks like AAA class replica. i have seen some of these and they are scary. they look okay if you dont have any experience with Subs or have the real one to compare. another sure way to tell is how the serial is engraved.

cali kid · 21 February 2012, 04:42 PM

Looks to be fake, more than a few things going on but the one thing that jumps out at me is the almost silver script on the dial

Andad · 21 February 2012, 04:47 PM

Based just on the dial crown and dial script I'd pass on that one.

littleronnie · 21 February 2012, 05:40 PM

pointed crown guards ? Fake.

It has a squashed S on Submariner which should make it a Y serial if it was real..

johnjoux · 21 February 2012, 06:57 PM

This piece looks real to me but im NOT sure about the crown guard

AND Who would sell the box away ? What is this ?

Someone should ask ....................

dysondiver · 21 February 2012, 09:17 PM

the carbon dial alone would scare me off ,,, and i love fantastic plastic.

SethBocaRatonPawn · 22 February 2012, 01:45 AM

It's clearly fake. The Rolex crown doesn't line up properly with the 12 hour marker either.
