Beckertime Rolex authenticity
Hello all! I am new to these forums and also fairly new to Rolex. I have read both good and bad things about beckertime on eBay, but I have come across this watch:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Datej...edirect=mobile I am wondering if anyone can shed some light on the authenticity of this watch. I’d like to consider purchasing it, but would like to know if there is anything iffy that can be seen from the pictures and or the details. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Welcome to the forum. They have a filter on their website for “100% Genuine” that should be useful. It’s a small percentage that are entirely genuine.

I never knew about the filter, so thanks for that information! If I am looking at it correctly, this watch does fall under that category. I would however still like to know if anyone outside of beckertime can shed some light on the authenticity of this watch since I have read some not so good things about the company. |

Why spend money there if you have any reservations?
Plenty of trusted sellers. |

From their website:
“30 DAY UNCONDITIONAL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE It’s very simple – a luxury watch purchase is a major investment, and BeckerTime wants their customer’s expectations exceeded with EVERY sale. If for any reason you’re not 100% satisfied with your time piece purchase, return the watch in the same condition in which it was sold (including all accessories) and your full purchase price will be refunded – no questions asked.” That should give you time to take it somewhere to have it checked out. |

That watch looks good. The bracelet is three links short so if your wrist is larger you will need more links.

I agree with Richard. Looks like a nice Datejust with a unique dial color. Jubilee bracelets came with 22 links and additional links aren't that expensive - around $50 each.

do they still buy back a watch at 100% if you trade to a more expensive one?

Just buy it and have it looked at by a reputable jeweler. It’s a good buy.

Beautiful watch. Did you end up getting it? I am in the same position right now. Found exactly what I wanted at a great price point, but am a little scared by the mixed reviews on here and degree to aftermarket touch they leave on the watches.

Maybe I'm not up on Datejusts, but that price seems high.
