if u are not far away. buy an air ticket and fly over and pick up the item personally and verify the watch thru local rolex dealer.

ask the seller if he is willing to meet u and process the transaction at the dealer

In the first picture if you look at the guarantee card it is blank? Normally only the serial number would be blanked out by the seller (for security). I would be a little suspicious about that 2007/2008 calender card also. AFAIK the calender cards stopped being shipped when ROLEX moved over to the Plastic guarantee cards (Anyone know any different chime in, we're all here to learn). I also notice there is no green tag yet everything else seems perfect? I would only pursue this if you had another Daytona to compare against and a case opener or as another poster suggested meet face to face at an AD.

Be careful.......do a google search on the associated email address, and you will see the watch posted on a few sites, along with a Patek, each one showing the seller having just joined in Arril of 2011, and 1 (see below) showing the watch having sold....

I would probably stay away, even if it were to be true, given the "newness" of the poster, unless I were living right there next to the seller, and could meet in person, at a safe location, where the authenticity of the whole package could be ascertained.
