Iam very close to buy a Rolex Submariner 16610 M Model. I only have some small problems.

Is the Rolex a fake and do I pay the correct prize for the watch? The watch is brand new and is sold by a small company, not a Auth Rolex Dealer.

Do I have to go to a Rolex AD and have it verified or can I check it myself?
Is the prize $5400 a good deal?

Iam pretty happy with the deal just scared to buy a copy...

Kind regards,

D.

Firstly, welcome to TRF.

If you're not sure about the authenticity of the watch......WAIT!!!!

Don't plonk down a single cent until you are 100% sure the watch is genuine.

Maybe you could tell that guy you would like to have the watch checked out by a Rolex dealer.

As for the price, the MSRP is US$6,000 so it seems you are getting just 10% off. Not sure if that's good or bad. I'm pretty sure there are guys here on this forum who can give you a much better deal......and guaranteed 100% genuine!!

Good luck - JJ

I'm afraid that there is no way we can know if the watch is fake or not without actually seeing it... The price is decent for a New Sub and if the seller is a reputable company, then it is unlikely that you would have any real concern.

No!!!!!!!!!
Go to an authoreizes dealer and buy it with the same price (you can) or buy it for less from this forum.

I got an SS Sub Date for $4950 (wire price) at Bernard, one of the most reputable gray sellers. So, I would say that this price is a little high. It's a great watch though, get one before they change it in 2010.

I bought mine for $4800 shipped with no tax from an AD. Keep shopping.
