Vintage Rolex on eBay

Could I get some comments re: authenticity on these watches? Can anyone see a reason for the price difference between them that isn't related to the 'slight damage' to the arms of the cheaper one? Does anyone have any info on these specific watches?

Seller: Cato90025

I am a complete noob to Rolex and my little watch knowledge so far relates to women's watches. I am looking for a vintage Rolex with a large, 'clean' (i.e. simple looking) face and hopefully involving rose gold somehow. Any comments here would be very helpful, thanks!

Welcome to TRF......

I am not at all knowledgeable on these 60 plus year old watches, but the watch pictured in these listings looks to be the same watch listed three times and at different prices.

The sub dial in all three is at 28 mins and in two of the listings the pictures are identical but the price is $1,000 different......

I am not claiming anything here, just do your due diligence and ask the seller these same questions.

If you have any doubt at all, don't buy. Maybe others can add to this. Let us know how you go.

Thank you very much mcjp6. I was wondering if all of these watches were in fact the same one. I will contact the seller to clear this issue up.

More comments would be appreciated, I am really a fish out of water with this topic (vintage Rolex).
