Is this a fake seadweeler double red?
Like the title says. Ran across this for sale but have heard there are lots of good fakes out there so any opinions are welcome

There was a fake DRSD being sold/resold earlier this year. Search this forum for 'DRSD' and the thread should come up, it was a VERY GOOD fake.

OP: Is this the listing?
I’m not linking to it (yet). But are your pictures a mix of 2 different listings? I ask because 2 of your photos go with a DRSD in the listing I saw but the other pictures are not in that listing? BTW - not accusing you of anything. You may have come across a listing where the seller stole photo’s from another listing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Its a correct mk4 dial, I have Some doubts About the caseback, Rolex is written around the caseback, this was in the 5.1-5.2 serial nummer range, this brings to mind, if the caseback isnt correct probably the case is also not correct.
Be extra carefull and check the case very well... |

No that's not it but I just saw it on ebay and your right some of the pics do look the same. That's a pretty big flag

They don’t just “look” the same - they are the same. Please post the link so we can get the imposter’s listing ashcanned. This is the one that I found with the original pictures. https://www.ebay.com/itm/ROLEX-DOUBL...3/273776675440 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yeah, there was another one from that listing that was also lifted. This seems to be some sort of scam so I'm stating away, I also reported it to ebay. The seller hasnt answered any of my questions either. The pics I sent were from another listing
Thanks for the help all |

I cant post links but its seller trout903 on ebay. He also says he cant send additional pics so it's got to be some type scam or hacked account. I have reported it to ebay.

Guys, this trout903 appears to have stolen photos from another eBay listing. This is the suspect listing below - I have reported it but auction ends in just a few hours so the more reports the better. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Sea-dweller/153596385718 Compare it to this listing that appears to be legit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ROLEX-DOUBL...3/273776675440 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Hopefully it gets canceled and someone doesn't get screwed. Thanks for the input. This is why these forums are great

Violated listing practices and suspected fraud. Are you also reporting? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Well you need to give a description or reason, and I could not see exactly what was stolen - sorry

That isn’t the case on fraudulent listings. I’ve made them before. It’s not the same as reporting a replica. The case here is a bit complex. You should be able to decipher the potential scam by looking at the two listings. But here is my assessment. There are 2 listings by 2 different sellers (one in Georgia; one in Louisiana) sharing some of the same pictures of a 1665 (but having other pictures of different watches). That is suspected fraud worth reporting. No worries if you’re unsure. The fraudulent one has ended anyway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks - was it actually removed? Or did it just end without a sale? (reserve not met perhaps) On my iPhone I can’t tell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I don’t usually care about killing fake listings - normally care more about killing listings with fake watches. Glad it got deleted. Quote:
Glad you started the thread. It certainly took a left turn - originally you wanted to know if it was a sketchy watch. But when I sought the listing you saw, I found the other listing from which the photo’s were stolen. From there it was apparent a different type of scam was underway.

I reported it AFTER it was closed, asking for it to be anulled.
Good work by all Adam
