HELP Needed, 16610lv kermit looks odd
this is a M serial this date font to me looks not to be orginal rolex, can any1 expirenced person give there opinion, also if clasp is coded PJ is it normal for braclet to be coded EO? or it must match, and is this bezel correct orginal rolex as the 50 looks off.
please share your knowledge if any1 can confirm if this is legit or after market |

You are concerned about the "50" yet in the 2 close-up pics you show pretty much all the bezel insert except the 50?
There is nothing odd in my eyes from these pics. M serial is 2007-2008. OE on the bracelet is 2007; PJ is 2008. All dates codes match but are you suggesting your clasp has two date codes? (not good) Or do you mean there is PJ on the clasp and OE in the inner side of the endlinks? (that's fine) |

I am by no means an expert, but that date font is not the Rolex font

Did you create two threads for same watch or two different watches?
Just looked at mine 2008 M series and the date font looks nothing like the one you posted.

I’d be cautious here. No papers to (perhaps) help validate?

I have seen a replica Kermit with the same thick date font. It comes with a clone 3135 movement. Difficult to see on these blurred photos but other tells are sharp pointy corners on dial indices at 12 (triangle), 6 and 9 (rectangle), rather than the soft curved corners on a genuine dial. Also indentation of solid end links from case might not be perfectly uniform and recessed. Sometimes rehaut can be “wokky”, as in doesn’t meet dial at 90° so resembles edge of a wok. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The date wheel font looks different but the alignment of the bezel markings looks off too, but that could just be the photos.

If you are asking then I assume its being listed at a price below market. There are no steals in Rolex, if the price is too low, then that should tell you there is something wrong.

2 threads, asking for a friend. Who opened it up for him to verify the movement?

Bezel looks fake to me.
Date is objectively fake. I doubt anyone would pay 12.7k euros for this. but the question is why you open multiple treads about the same replica? |
