mmm, that watch looks a bit suspicious to me. Firstly i am not sure about the dial but i just cant make it out clearly enough from the pictures.?
more importantly the fact that there are no picures of the watch in the box with all corresponding serial numbers etc in view is just wrong. You aked for more and he hasn't delivered. stock pictures and that is not even a gold rolex box- the gold get the large size. This looks like an SS box to me. a stock picture. i would be very weary too. very suspicious

I cannot find the thread and cannot find the member either. But if you have doubts, walk away.

The thread in question was removed as the "seller" did not adhere to the rules in that section.....
If these pictures were emailed to you,after asking for a particular time,my advice is take a high level of care..

OK, so not banned and still here, my apolgies.

If he is still here, just send him a pm and ask again for what you need. If a seller has an item in the For sale section and is not acting properly report the thread to the mods and let them deal with it.

So now I am confused, I just checked his posts, which all seem quite normal, and he has not had a thread in the for sale section.

Maybe you need to sought this out with Rob via PM before things get out of hand here......

A quick update......
This "member" was a scammer using stolen pics from the Ebay user generalwar!!

I contacted the Ebay member asking if he was involved in TRF and got a resounding no.! (On the bright side,we may have a new member!)

So in short,mrguns77 is no longer a member here!!
