This is a fake GMT, right? Fishy eBay

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-GMT-Mast...222?nav=SEARCH

Exchanged messages, seems like a good guy, but serial no is off, had a pic of a warranty paper that was for a Yachty, s serial... the serial between thenlugs was 7 digits and was all numeric like 350872, or something, he took some of it down. Warranty card obviuosly didnt match the pic he posted either, it looks like a good no.if you guys think its legit, ill buy it, but the 12 marker doesnt seem to line up with the middle of the coronet, and bezel looks off.

It's fake. The Rolex writing is too bold and the "oyster perpetual date" is slightly off.

The hand alignment with markers doesn't look perfect. The letters don't line up with each other like mine does.

I wouldn't want a watch where they couldn't be bothered to put the 12 o'clock marker on straight

I know right, do I need to report it, or will someone else?

And since someone got so close to the 12:00 marker to notice it, take a look at the 11:00
