Im not sure if its a copy or replica.



seller thomasc1142 ( 18)

Im selling a stainless steel rolex bracelet. Im not sure of it authenticity. It has the insigna and is very nice. I was told it came off a Rolex daytona watch

but I cannot verify that. It looks like new . There are no scratches. Im not sure if its a copy or replica.

I'm not sure of the 'technicalities' of ebay lstings but to be fair to the seller he does quite clearly say that

"Im not sure of it authenticity....."

"I was told it came off a Rolex daytona watch but I cannot verify that......"

"Im not sure if its a copy or replica".


He's made a few low-value deals but has 100% feedback so I don't think he's a con-artist or anything, & I certainly wouldn't shoot the guy.....

One is supposed to state clearly what is being offered for sale. This seller is not doing that. By his own admission (probably to cover himself when it found to be fake) he says he does not know.


The bracelet, if real (which it isn't) is worth around $700 or more, and he has it listed for $55??

Sorry.... I honestly wasn't "being funny" in any way I just wondered why it was in the "Watch Out" listings.

(& now I know!)

Isn't a 'copy' and a 'replica' the same thing?
