Oyster Perpetual 1500 and chameleon - fake or not?

Hello to all!

I am interested to buy these two watches and I have only these pictures (click to enlarge) from the seller...could you help me to identify them? Are they real or fake? Yes, I am a girl and I am looking to buy my first vintage Rolex. Do you think they are worthy? Should I save my money and wait for something more special?
Any recommendation is appreciated!

















Thank you very much!

That 1500 looks to be original from the pictures shown. I would guess from late 60s through late 70s in age. A pic of the movement and the serial number etchings between the lugs would confirm authenticity. The second watch im not familiar with. Its a ladies cocktail watch. Thats all I can add. You would need a pic of the movement and the inside of the case back for us to help on that one. Not enough info from the pics provided.

Thank you very much for your answers!

Unfortunately they have only these pictures...I would go to their store, but it's a little far away from me (I don't live in Tokyo).
It's a sale, so I am tempted to buy. I don't think I would buy at the normal price, because I think these 2 models are not so expensive and the sale price it's what they should cost to begin with.

I think I should try...if everything it's ok I will post here. They sell internationally too, but most ladies vintage stuff like bags, shoes, watches, etc.

One more question...from a collector perspective, what kind of ladies models should I look for? There is so many and I am a little lost...
