$2,000 for a watch that listed over 30K? Makes sense.

The gentleman messaged me privately and offered 10 K through PayPal if I was interested. He also sent me additional pictures of the box and papers. I know that doesn’t mean much in today’s world with all the counterfeits that are out there. That’s why I wanted to ask you all here

The cheapest ROO 44mm listed in Chrono24 is 20k, and it is from an unknown seller from Russia.

Do you really think anyone would sell this for 10k???

I hear you ! That’s why I wanted to ask if it’s a fake or not. I mean I am protected by PayPal if it ends up being fake , I can file a claim to get my money back but it’s a pain in the you know what !

Has the old bezel which I've seen mostly on fakes and no mvmnt pics, so hard pass. 10K is a fake price too.

He can show you a movement pic, but then he could still bait and switch you, the price is all wrong.

I can't see any of your pics, can you post them here? Also compare it to a genuine pic from Google. You will need these to check later if the watch sent to you is the same one.

Also at 10K could be stolen.

if you have an iphone there is an app called tapatalk that works well. honestly pics do not mean much he could still send you a box of rocks.

Thoughts are it's a fake or a scam. That is a 20k watch all day. It is not an obscure watch where the seller won't know the value.

You clearly want to buy it so go for it and report back. As I already stated, for a 2012 watch the sub dials (and the dial itself) are wrong.

The whole ebay sellers account is shaky... he just sold an RO for $8.75k that is now deleted from the server. Walk away.

Adrian I have an idea on how we can get some YouTube hits. Let’s use your huracan as a ramp to jump your raptor.



Sorry the avatar presents an opportunity for a tempting stunt
