Hi all. So, most here are true Rolex experts I have come to believe. While I have three Rolexes, I'm no expert.

Anyway, thinking of adding this Daytona to my collection. 10/15 warranty card (later made 116523). From a trusted seller, though not among those here.

I am so gun shy about the gold bezels on these watches, as they are clearly prone to pretty significant dings.

The store with this watch just sent me these photos. Just wondering if anything stands out to anyone here. This is major money for me. Feedback would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Chuck

I know, sorry. Struggling to resize them.

Tried to add. Can you open my attachments?

Anyone using Safari can't open Zip files.

I am apparantly inept at reducing file sizes. Ugh.

Mac or PC? Easy methods for resizing on both - try a quick google search. I use preview in Mac - Tools then Adjust size, 1250 pixels for widest size of the image - easy!

Aren't they visible now?

If you can't look at this watch in person and are relying on photos, then you need to get a number of photos from different angles.

Good point. Yes, can't see in person. Mainly concerned about how marked up the bezel was. Clasp and bracelet all look fine. I have three days to send it back if I buy it, just be out about $50 for shipping. Now need to investigate if it's priced ok....

Looks like a nice piece. Bezel geometry still good. Retains paint. No donkey has hit it with the buffing wheel.

There’s a heavy filter on those pics.

Really? No filter expert. My impression the person just snapped a few real quick with a phone.

Bezel looks average to me and I am sure there are better examples out there for sale.

I would pass on that one.
