Does this look right?
the date mag that is??
seller the-righteous-one ( 175 ) Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Explorer II Model 16570 Serial F977152 This Rolex is 100% Genuine I don't have any papers or box with this watch. Everything is working fine There are a few small dents and scracthes around the watch casing which some of them are in the photographs There are 2 marks on the face, one between the 7-8 and the other one around the hands in the middle of the face. You can see them in the photos. I can't any scratches on the glass. Any other questions please don't hesitate to ask. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rolex-Oyster-P...item4ceeffb263 |

For an F 2006 serial, that don't look right :-) That is not the original crystal, looks like an acrylic to me, unless he has mucked up the serial somewhere

Just another note - I'm now saying fake, Hour hand should be below the 24H hand on the hand stack :-)
Disregard that :-) having one of those nights :-) the stack is correct on that one

I certainly doesn't feel right . Glass could be aftermarket . Clasp code is consistent with late F serial . Just note the drop of the last digit (2) on the serial . Strange to see such a irregularity of the serial on relative young Rolex watches .

I am probably wrong, I just thought the date mag was too small, on others the date appears to be the same size as numbers on the bezel, on this one it appears to me to be smaller.

Real
IMO it's real.
Crown fits nice to the case. My Exp2 has the same crazy serial engraving. Jack |

I say it's real. Here's why.
the guy took some very good, clear, close up shots of the watch, so he's confident in the authenticity. Also, there's no SOB story on where the watch came from, like a dead Uncle or a gift he didn't want. He didn't pick it up at an estate sale. For those reasons alone it looks legit. If it is fake, the seller, himself, doesn't know it. |
