Rolex OP 34 Red Grape Authentication
Bought from a 4.7 Rated Chrono24 dealer, but still just wondering. Appreciate any help. Can take more pictures.

3 observations:
4.7 rating in my view is not a great rating. I’m no expert on this watch but it looks fine to me. Going forward, I find it helpful to do the due diligence first before I actually make the purchase Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks for your reply. I guess I just thought the Chrono24 authentic protection for dealers was good enough. I happen to be going to San Diego tomorrow so I was thinking of taking it to D’s Time Service to see if they can authenticate the watch for me as well as inquire about a service.

I think the lasered logo inside the clasp doesn't look great, but your photos are too unclear to say anything definitive.
The fake OPs are very, very well done, so take it to D's for peace of mind. .

Took it to D’s today he told me it was most likely real but if I wanted to make sure he can charge me to open it up. I’m going to just trust his opinion and forgo opening it up as I plan on having it serviced one day. They were amazing and very professional (didn’t charge me anything), going to go with them for when I service the watch!

I find the engraving of rolex looking a bit weird but that also could be the picture quality. |

Not a bold statement. Just fact. It’s like a 96% rating on eBay. Not good. On C24 4.9 or 5.0. And I don’t even buy from those guys. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
