Yea I would say that it's probably the real deal. Seems like he's putting it all out there and willing to go the extra step to verify the authenticity.

The reserve was not met in the original Ebay auction. Bidding never exceeded $15,101 USD. Now he is trying to sell it through Antiquorum. Maybe it will sell this time, considering he's sweetened the pot with his race jumpsuit!

So did you get this one wrong?
It is the real deal?

Very real .
The watch itself is a run of the mill 116520 with regular warranty documents . It is Rolex USA that has the case back engraved and upgrades the box to the " master pieces " box . Were you to inquire with Rolex SA in Geneva they would not be able to confirm if this watch was indeed issued to the race winner , only Rolex USA could confirm this . |

It looks like the watch didn't sell.
I'm not surprised considering the high starting bid ($35k). For this price, I buy another Rolex model... |
