Never heard of the seller, “therealreal”...are they real real legit? I always buy the seller, not the price first. Anything priced abnormally low is a red flag to me

Agree about it being a bit suspicious, yet you never know....
BTW, alikara here on TRF got me the Everose DD40 with chocolate and ice dial for less than what DavidSW wants for normal dial version. If you guys seek out, you'll find deals from 'less popular' TRF greys.

Doesn’t say if it includes box or papers. Says serial number is from 2007. Likely polished.

I dunno who bought that one, but the question, who got the best deal? Well, my wife ranks right up there in the top 10 or 20, for sure. She's gotten four very nice Rolex's for zero dollars. Yeah, she's had to put up with me for 25 years, but, still, that's a heck of a deal... And she'd probably get the rest of 'em if she kicked me to the curb...

I do not trust TheRealReal. I spotted numerous fakes, mostly Panerais and Hublots. I’ve emailed them once about it and they pretended that their QC was so good but that one slid under their noses. I would understand if it was one piece, but Ive sent them other emails of at least 5 fake Panerais. To their credit they did remove it from the site, but after the first one they did not even give me a modicum of gratitude by never replying back.

The REALREAL company is 100% honest and legitimate.
They have a number of watchmakers and Horologists on site - they would NEVER purposely sell a fake. I recently also did 3 days training to them - its an impressive company. Did they learn a lot? Absolutely. Could they be duped again? I dont think so! Adam R. Harris

What kind of website is this? I have to sign up or login using FB to browse? Horrible concept.

I dont agree with it, but hardly unique to REALREAL!
