Fake site confirmation.

I got a PM from a member who is interested in my WG/SS Diamond Dial DJ.

However this member sent me a link to this site wondering why my Rolex for sale was more expensive ($3,900) than the one pictured here.

http://www.rolex24h.com/rolex_wg_sodalite_datejust.htm

If you look at this watch as well as the ones at the bottom of the page you will recognize that the photos of the watches may be real, but the prices are too good to be true.

Can anybody confirm that this is a fale/replica watch site. Don't want this person to think I am snowing them to get them to buy my DJ.

Thanks.

Not sure about this site, but prices are indeed toooo good to be true and their payment method's only bankwire.

If this person wants to purchase your watch at that site's price, you can politely tell them to purchase it from that site.

BTW, there was a thread about this site before, please read http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=16268

Everyone wants a deal.. However, the market for Rolex is pretty well defined with only a few hundred difference between them

Anyone who believes they are going to receive a genuine Rolex for several thousand off the fair market value is deluding themselves.

I agree with Vernon.

Tell anyone who does not like the price of your watch, as compared to another, they are welcome to choose between them.

Personally I believe the site listed is a replica scam site, if anything at all.

I notice the 2005 TT Sub (Black) has a tritium (T<25) dial. That watch is too new for that, isn't it? Indeed, unless he is selling some repossesed/bought at auction, etc. watches, I don't know for the life of me why he's selling so cheap.

Yeah, I'd be suspicious of that site. The Explorer II they have listed looks authentic, however, it's supposed to be a 2005, yet it looks like it has a warranty card pictured.
