I searched the text, not the image and first page.

Michael knows that scammers are traditionally lazy people ( they do not work , hence they scam people that do work ) so they will just take the easy option and cut and paste the text . Once you got the text , you will find the page and the pictures .
If more people would take the time to do some simple research like this before they sent of their money to those leeches , they would not have to come and cry afterwards .

Good detective work Michael. My suspicions were justified. Thought the pictures were to good to be true for a guy with little feedback. Not that easy to take superb pictures of a Rolex, unless one is experienced in that field.

Now he actually shows what you would have gotten when winning his original listing . I remember the original pictures were of a real one ( stolen pictures ) This one is a joke . Who has ever seen a rehaut engraving like this ? 116520 with 116519/509 hour markers ?
Day Date sub dials too !
Reported .. should there for much longer
FUNGUS !

That picture is ghastly. The engraving is clearly printed instead of engraved. This guy is desperate.
