I believe the watch is real from these photos.
What bothers you? Other than relatively low BIN price. There is no mention of box or papers which the seller I presume overlooked. What do you all say?

Looks good to me too. I assume the seller must have some knowledge if he has the tool to remove the back as well.

There has been no activity on this account since October of 2008 and now he comes up with a Rolex Daytona, that is way under priced. This watch typically has a year waiting list, to get it and, it goes for above the actual retail price when it is sold. Even a used one that is a "Z" Series should go for about $10,000. This is either stolen pictures, with a hijacked account, or just stolen pictures from a guy who wants to make the big score. There is something very wrong with this sale. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Terry, I agree possible hijacked account.
Prices are dropping on all Daytonas but not that much.

The photos were real. The price and seller history were highly suspicious. eBay must have thought so as well and they didn't want to shell out 7k to cover a scammed buyers loss.
