78200 band

Fellows I found out today that I did get duped and now am a proud owner of a well built folex, I did however find a new rolex ad who took the time to examine the band, I left with them today because their 13 year inhouse repairman was at lunch. My question to them was that it was an op8 approximately 5 to 6 years old could this had been a 1st generation and some changes could have been made.The repairman pulled his manuals out to compare the end links and the ends on mine had a bronze like color and the real one had a much clearer cut which was the tale tale of this experience. I am relieved to know at least of what I do have and will from now on not buy off ebay.The old saying is pay now or pay later.In my case I'm doing both, but the good thing is I did learn a good lesson and appreiciate all the feedback from you guys, thanks hanybad for your patience through this transaction and glad you did not experience this a year down the road.
