If it’s was ever reported to Rolex as stolen, then Rolex will hold it and contact whoever reported it stolen I believe.

Welshwatchman sorry, I don't think she has said that at all (post 116, I don't know how to quote).
I understand she has the papers but I do not think she has said her son owned it after the website sold it, I do actually think that is probably the case but until it is confirmed contacting the website is the only link to the watch at the moment. |

I'd change the sentence to "someone who thought they bought it legally". Obviously a stolen car would be a easier analogy to make, but there is no governmental registration of watches as there is with cars. The estate of the deceased would have had to formally lodge a claim of theft against this watch and for that to be accepted by the authorities. At that stage there's a rightful owner on record. I am not sure that this happened on this occasion.

Well I’ve known the owners Jake and Victoria at SwissWatchExpo for several years and my watchmaker worked with Jake back in the Maier & Berkeley days here in ATL. They don’t generate fake papers. A watch with a card is how SWE would have known it was first sold in 2013. Rolex wasn’t using paper certificates on Random s/n watches at that time. Is it possible that Bear’s Mom has the sales receipt that may have accompanied the sale to her son? Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk

I wouldn’t place too much emphasis on that name. The image of the warranty card in the SwissWatchExpo listing appears to have been altered by someone before it got to them. Notice how the date is entered in ballpoint pen, but the name appears in a different type of pen? And the underlying security text appears to be lightened for some reason. Not claiming there’s a nefarious motivation for a different name on the card - sometimes people who sell a watch don’t want their real name being passed forward. In my humble opinion, SWE sold the watch to someone and it likely was on their eBay store where most of their deals are posted. Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk

As for pics, I won't hold my breath. She's acknowledged she's not computer savvy. |

Ah so, misunderstood.
I do think Bear’s Mom has paper rather than card. Only WIS say papers when they mean card Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk

Maybe it is a watch appraisal? Or a authenticity type certificate made up by a jeweler or watchmaker who examined or authenticated the watch? Darned if I know. Don't know how she can't be computer savvy unless she is elderly or really old school. Oh well, popcorn in hand this will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

Missing your Rolex certification papers?

I could not hazard a guess - but the RSC issues paper when they certify authenticity. Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk

SamP -
I am not sure that my "replies" are getting to people who post - I have tried to explain my situation (although my "syntax", i.e. 'sentence structure' is poor, according to some). I am not the most computer savvy person in the world (unlike others on here who have been "high-fived" for locating my IP. (Wish he would share it with me - I don't even know it! lol!) Anyway, all of that amount to nothing..I thought I was coming to a place where "like-minded" folks could give me some suggestions concerning my situation. Some have been nice - some have insinuated that I am a thief, a liar, a con artist, a briber, and on and on. I guess this is not like the USN where I used to pour over with my son, who was also an avid knife collector. (I even had a FB private message from a member on this forum who knew my son through knife collecting - asking me who I was and to help him find Brandon's (Bear's) REAL mom. I told him I was Brandon's REAL - I had remarried 35 years ago, so - different last names. I have nothing to hide. I have offered my e-mail, my cell #, etc. I just wanted some help. If you do get this - please e-mail me at cmjinpg@aol.com. If you would, maybe you would be kind enough to help me work my way through this site so that I do not offend anyone. Needless to say - after reading more of the posts this morning...I feel like an idiot for reaching out to those who would help in the first place. If you feel like calling me and getting the whole story - my cell is 336-674-7705. Please feel free to do so. And thank you for not calling me names. Thanks! bearsmom. |

Well one way to help us help you is to take a picture of the papers/card you’ve mentioned.

I plainly said MY DEAD SON owned the watch - it was stolen the night we found out he died - which was, sadly, and pretty sickly - 5 days after he died. ALSO, THE PERSON THAT STOLE THE WATCH IS A FAMILY MEMBER - AND BEFORE I BREAK ALL HELL LOOSE - I WANT ALL THE AMMO I CAN GET.

When I responded it only said this: If you own a Rolex Submariner Serial # 2132T5F4 Style114060 - let me know . I have the original papers for it - maybe we can work something out.!! I’m sorry to hear about your son and I pass along my condolences.

If anyone on here lives near the Greensboro, NC area - I will gladly bring the "papers", or whatever they are called - to show them. And there is no change in ink of the back of the card - and I talked with "Mark" at SwissWatchExpo...and he was very kind...which is more than I can say for some folks on this forum...
