Anyone trust this guy, He has a datejust picture that doesnt show the Rolex engraving under the crystal. which is a red flag to me. Might just be safe and go with a AD.

Welcome to TRF!

Yes, one should always "WatchOut" if you catch my drift?

AD is always the safest way to go!

Quite a few people have successfully bought online, but for me personally I prefer the AD, the whole experience is worth the difference IMO.

I emailed to say that I am interested in a TT Sub that he had and could I inspect the watch in person. Twice I emailed, twice I heard nothing back.

I wouldn't deal with him.

I bought an Explorer from BuckoJoe last year. Good deal and the watch was perfect, had no problems at all.

His comms were also very good so it seems odd to me that he would not respond to a query.

you get the explorer appraised, Im not taking the chance for a few hundret bucks. Better safe than sorry. Its not like its tonka truck were buying here.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the AD? Authorized Distrib?

A Rolex Authorized Dealer. Here's a pretty good list of abbreviations used:
