Rolex Submariner - real or fake? Please help

Hi,

I've found this watch online and trying to work out if it's genuine or not.

Apologies, I'm sure you guys are sick of this sort of things.

The owner has lost the box and paperwork (which could be real).

Person is happy to meet in a jewellers to verify authenticity.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Best,
S

"The owner has lost the box and paperwork (which could be real)"

What does that mean?

If a jeweler verifies it's genuine...find a new jeweler.
100% fake

He may tell you he's willing to meet somewhere to authenticate, but they never follow thru in the end........he will tell you he sold it elsewhere or come up with a story. Press him on it and see what he does if you hv the time and patience. Of course most of us dont have the time to mess with these jagoff's, so they continue to prey on people looking for a bargain.
