2008 M Series 16610 Sub - Can anyone sees the engraving on its Chapter Ring...?

Err buddies...no offense meant to anyone...

This PowerSeller claims his wifey insists that he sells the watch...el pronto!

http://cgi.ebay.com/2008-Rolex-Subma...QQcmdZViewItem

But can anyone please try to see if the original engraving can be spotted on the Chapter Ring of that M series Submariner...? or else...it would likely be a fake Sub.

Orchi sure can't figure it out...



Also...does the New M Series Rolex comes with that OLD style fashion hangtag...in US...?



This could be a FAKE Warranty Card...if you compare the actual one at the bottom of this posting...

Anyone has a similar genuine Rolex Warranty Card...to compare...?



This is the REAL Warranty Card by Rolex...which is similarly found in this part of the world.

Orchi:

I think it is genuine. I think the lighting was really bright and the glare makes it difficult to see the branding but, I can see it, just barely. I see nothing wrong with the watch.

Err buddy Terry...when you are able to see the engraving...then it should be Ok.

Orchi still can't see it...probably because of this Old CRT monitor that Orchi is using currently...which doesn't show high enough monitor display resolutions...

Not enough $ to get the new LCD type yet...Sigh...

If you can an 'R' at the 53 minute mark them it must be a fake as it should have an 'E' there.

Err buddies...appreciate the feedbacks...which is why Orchi has asked if anyone could see the engraving on the chapter ring...before even making an erroneous judgement on the watch listing...

Nevertheless...can anyone comment about the clear differences seen with the warranty cards...?

Does anyone possess a warranty card in particular of M series Rolex watch...to make comparison...?

Because a coconut fell out of the tree and hit little Orchi in the noggin and he's been touched ever since. But we love him and, he does a damn good job in helping me keep people honest.

Elitetime on ebay is a legit seller, I almost pulled the trigger on a deal, was going to meet in person (they have a manhattan office), but I found a better deal and canceled the appointment. May not be the best prices but, legit sellers they are.

The warranty for the 16710 is from USA and the warranty for the 14060m is from NZ.

orchi warranty cards in the USA are in ENglish- everywhere else even in England they are in French!- that would be my reasoning for the difference

Sounds like Orchi has been hitting that Opium pipe a little hard lately.
