New to the forum. Looking for the experts' opinion identifying this watch I purchased on ebay. If fake, what recourse do I have? Thanks. Name: $T2eC16VHJGIFFoZsSFE0BR0NMHfF9Q~~60_1.jpg

Welcome to TRF!

It appears to be a frankenwatch since it's TT except for bracelet. And the insert appears to be aftermarket replacement.

The seller may not have known this since they aren't in the watch business - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-GMT-Ma...p2047675.l2557

no return accepted...but your recourse is to use eBay buyer protection.

Classic learning moment for buying the seller first...

Thanks for replying, fellows. According to UPS, it'll be delivered monday. I will post new photos when it arrives. Until then, I am unable to tell myself if GMT hand is red and stack order. Indeed, learning moment.

Thanks for the warm welcome and quick replies. I am unable to tell myself whether the GMT hand is red or order of stack since according to UPS, it'll be delivered monday. Will post my own photos once it arrives. Indeed a learning moment!

Thanks guys. Don't have it yet. I'll promise an update next week.

Looks real with correct gold hands including 24hr hand. Non rolex bezel insert and incorrect bracelet - ss instead of two tone.

quickasrain · 6 July 2013, 11:59 PM

Thanks waspy1, I appreciate your opinion.

powerfunk · 7 July 2013, 02:14 AM

Is the crown gold or steel? It looks steel in the first pic. Should have gold crown and gold bezel, and Tt bracelet. Good luck!

quickasrain · 10 July 2013, 01:39 AM

It arrived. Feel free to comment. Thanks.

powerfunk · 10 July 2013, 01:48 AM

Hand stack is correct for 1675. I'm no expert but with a proper insert she'll be looking real good to me! Might be a good idea to send to a trusted watchmaker if you don't know the service history anyway. Congrats!

vintagewaferthin · 10 July 2013, 09:24 PM

Get an original Rolex bezel and a tt jubilee and she will be looking awsome!
