hey guy's, came across this piece on craigslist..

http://miami.craigslist.org/pbc/jwl/2951055857.html

Guy doesn't seem to know too much, apparently he's had it since 97 he said.. But his reference number is off (I believe its a 16753) since it doesn't have the nipple dial, and has an oyster bracelet opposed to jubilee?

I know my modern Rolex's quite well, but with vintage I am somewhat left in the dark. Any insight on this piece and whether or not you think it's a decent deal at 3k to 3500?

he's willing to meet at a legit jeweler to get it checked, and said it was service in 2010... Seems good to me and honest that he is willing to go through these lengths

Thanks guy's

I thought it was only the root beer than had the jubilee?

I wouldn't want to deal with that guy based on the tome of his post, but that's just me.

True.

But for a quick/ cash hassle free deal in my favor? Doesn't seem like too much issue, hrm.

He said it is a 1675 which came in two-tone, but not with that dial. Sounds like a good listing to avoid.

I would definitely not go to the jeweler of his choosing,sounds too much like a setup.
