Seller using Tony G's photos
Not so sure about this seller but he/she is using Tony's stock pictures.
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=593837 Moderator did exercise a spot check last time on another listing (he used LawrenceB's picture - 4th picture on that listing) and seller was able to produce the specified time and date on the listed watch: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=582903 Again, when the price is too good, exercise caution. |

Is that permitted? To use pics that aren’t yours? I’d have to imagine not.

Scary, to say the least, how things can get so twisted... hoping the real account holder's ID is ok. DM

Wow -
On the question of using other seller’s pictures, it is not permitted since the pictures must be of the actual watch being offered for sale. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great job, Fred!
I saw that listing for the 15202 when it first came up and was scratching my head.  . If it's too good to be true, it probably is! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
