Fake?

Please report if it is, I can't tell but the seller is in Hong Kong and instead of Rolex, he put R O L E X instead, so to me a bad sign. Plus the markers seem a little too wide.

Wow, really? He also has for sale a S E I K O. Why is spelling it in caps with spaces between a bad sign?

I have to agree....
Although the pics aren't great, the watch looks fine.

The caps with spacing are more of a visual and nothing to do with question-ability!

Ebay may put a restriction on the number of "Rolex" you can list. I am not saying this is the case for this listing or particular seller. But when you see newbies listing RO LEX and/or a combination thereof, EBAY will not allow the sellers to list.

So the spacing is a way around the rule.
