93150 580 Help authenticating

Hi all-

I've been searching around for a new bracelet and came across this listing on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/183825161263?ul_noapp=true

Is this a good bracelet? I've asked for better pictures out of the box but he said its factory sealed and doesn't want to open it.

Thanks!!

I’m pretty sure you can pick one up from Rolex for cheaper than that!

The seller has zero eBay feedback as a seller that I can see, and honestly the photos are not sufficient to determine authenticity. I would be careful

I wouldn't buy anything Rolex related from that part of the world that is claimed to be genuine...

I can tell you a new one from Rolex will be less expensive by a good margin.

Price is insane. Just find a lightly used one for $1k.

Well you live next door..just 450miles away? For me that is like buying a watch in Belgium, but then that country is famed for producing the some of the best chocolate in the world not the best counterfeits. For me there would be almost zero recourse if I was scammed by a seller on the other side of the world so I would prefer to shop for Rolex closer to home. Thanks.

Obviously if I was there in person that would be totally different, I can tell fake and genuine apart. Mail order or buying unseen online for delivery though, no. Sorry for the confusion as this is what I meant.
