Beware - I think Fake Red Sub 1680 Mk1 Listing on Ebay

[ilikebond]

If you've seen or are watching this auction for a Mk1 Red Sub 1680, BEWARE. I found two of the photos used in the ad came from internet sites, including the excellent blog by Mark Lerman that's stickied in this forum.

Specifically, the first picture in the auction is this:



It comes from the Rolex Passion Report (scroll down to about 24th picture, about 3/4 way down page).

The second picture in the auction is this:



It comes from the Mark Lerman Rolex Red Submariner Reference primer (see the first picture under the section "Box and Papers").

I reported this to ebay and encourage others to do so as well.
