Fake from UK Rolex 18K Gold?
Looks fake.
1)Cyclops is too big. 2)Date 22 different size. What else am I missing? The 18K band as well? The clasp does not look right. http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-President-...item20b052166c |

that is an 1803 model with plastic crystal..the plstic crystals where inconsistent with their magnification..IMO the watch looks fine.

Steve's right, this one is fine. Seller has been trying to shift it for a long time now, and slowly decreasing the price. Problem as can be seen is the bracelet is stretched to hell and back. I seem to recall he told me that when he had it serviced by Rolex recentley (papers as seen on auction pics) they quoted him nearly as much as he's trying to sell the watch for to restore the bracelet. If it gets down to £3k or a little moreish then it would be worth buying, selling the bracelet for scrap and buying a new bracelet.
