Watch looks real, but he probably just lifted them from another "for sale" thread on the internet.

I'd be very wary Freddie, this Skrill thing is like Western Union, they can withdraw the money immediately on receipt and simply disappear, it means you would have no protection if it turned out to be snide; Alarm bells ringing loudly as the vendor has no credible feedback-the item is claimed to be in Greece, yet the bloke is registered in Bulgaria, since September.

So, as a fellow Limey and Rolex enthusiast, I say one word .....AVOID!

Regards

Dave

If you can't pay pal on eBay, I always stay away, regardless of amount. Pay Pal makes it a snap to get your money back. Additionally, if you purchase anything via Pay Pal, you can do it via your CC which provides an additional buffer of saftey.

Just my 2 cents.

forget it, real photos, but too professional don't you think for a 2 feedback seller, it takes a while to understand how to take good photos of a watch, and his payment method gives no protection, the description is a cut and paste, stay away this one is way to fishy.
