Real vintage watch?

Hi All,

I am a complete Rolex newbie and was offered a vintage Rolex watch at a good price. I wanted to know if it seems real and if Rolex even made a watch like this. Appreciate any input.

Thanks in advance

Vik

Run and don’t look back. Run for your life.

Fake as fake is going to be faked.

Understood, thanks and sorry to waste anyone's time. I really liked the design, would have still bought it if they didn't put the Rolex logo on it.

You didn't waste anyone's time. Better to do the due diligence then making the financial mistake.

Plenty of quality, affordable skeletonized watches out there to enjoy.

Every time I think it can’t get any worse, it does.
