Seller: wristrolex, 322 and 100% positive feedbacks.

This is a fake Rolex 6538. No doubts!

I HATE these fraudulent sellers!

Excellent catch!

Goiguidoc · 21 October 2012, 05:50 AM

The shape of the case is completely wrong!
We all know where it comes from...

Shit, I already bid for this watch and contacted the seller now via ebay that I would like to withdraw my bid and he should cancel it. Hope that works, otherwise I have to hope someone will use vero to notify ebay.

Very uncautious from my part, should have been more carefully looking. Serial number engraved was also dodgy to me, but the ref. engraving on the other side looked okay. Just the font and color combination of the dial also made me suspicous.

Is it a Yuki?

kooltzar · 21 October 2012, 10:41 AM

Thank good, there is a higher bid (probably from the seller himself after I told him), so I am safe. But still, any other potential buyer should know: Beware!

Needs to be binned!

Not being an expert on circa 1950's Submariners, shouldn't the dial be two lines instead of four? And the movement, it looks genuine to me.

Goiguidoc · 21 October 2012, 04:41 PM

A very few 6538 four line of text dials were produced for this model, but they are very very rare. For some reason, we see a lot of them on eBay.

This dial is completely fake, so are the other parts of the watch.
I'm not too worried about the fakes sold at $50 on eBay.
However, I'm extremely annoyed by these fraudulent sellers trying to sell POS at big bucks.

This seller either doesn't know what he is selling or is a total crook.

Goiguidoc · 21 October 2012, 04:45 PM

Agree with you John, the movement is correct.

springer · 22 October 2012, 12:50 AM

Looks like there were three variations of the dial for the 6538.

Goiguidoc · 22 October 2012, 12:57 AM

There are a few more variations with different combinations. For example 3-6-9 dials or three red lines.
Sorry I don't know how to post pics. I have to switch to tchapaltalk or something like that.

Goiguidoc · 24 October 2012, 05:38 AM

Reported twice, but still there.
Current bid is $3'450.
I'm giving up with eBay, but someone at the end is going to get screwed up.
