fake?

What makes you say they are scammers? I just came across their site and it seems a little suspicious. Do you have any hard evidence or get ripped off by them?

Please let me know, thanks!

Yes they are a big scam I've worked my nuts off to be able to buy my first rolex. They want a wire transfer won't take cards pay pal etc they reply to you for a couple of email and that's it. I've been waiting for it to turn up but nothing. The bank tried to get the money back but no joy. No I've got the police involved.

Check out the links in the 118238. Do they have stainless steel inserts or are is it only a reflection? Either way, real or fake a price tag of $4860 raises all the alarm bells!

That's a stolen picture for starters. It belongs to respected ebay member "top-notch watch". Here is a link to one of his current listings:

I thought the photos looked familiar, but aren't those stainless steel inserts inthe links or are they just reflections? Not the links with the screws, but the other links. Shouldn't they all be one solid piece of gold on this model?

I think it's just reflections.
If you look at the other pictures that are from a different angle you don't see them.

The pictures belong to a guy who runs a ebay site. topnotchwatches. he runs a legitimate selling site and I found this out after emailing him. The clarity of the photographs gave this away.

Ok, I stand corrected on the links. I guess it is just a weird reflection.

I can't imagine anyone thinking they could order an 18k DD for $5000, but that's just me. :-)

I notified Mr. Levin and he is aware of it. Apparently it has been happening for quite a while.
