Thoughts

I can never pick these, seller has good history but not selling high end, I would have thought with such a low starting price it would have some bids by now with a couple of days to go. Not really interested as I like my Daytona but at that price I would snap it up.

Sellers feedback lists clothing, giftcards, vitamins and books. Not exactly a place to buy an expensive Rolex watch, IMO.

I would expect a spike in the price at the end however. But.. Artarman isn't to far from you Craig.
You could always request a face to face or a place where it can be authenticated if you're not to versed on spotting the non genuine!

Rob,

No interest on my part, happy with my Daytona, I just note that most of the even shoddy fakes have bidding from day 1, I note in the last 12 hours it has gone from no bids to 18, and over 9K. I suspect it is legit and based on WG one that sold recently here I think it will go for around 18-20K, just merely a comment that it had gone many days without a bid. Artarmon is a pretty nice suburb so I doubt it is fake, and would definitely inspect if wanting to buy. Agree while the seller is legit he does not have history of trading gold Rolex.

$19,300 with 57 bids, so I guess it was legit my estimate on the mark as well.
