Watch Out on this one

Maybe partly real, but certainly not completely, this seller is manipulating his listing to snag the unwary.

EG he states "UP FOR AUCTION IS A 100% AUTHENTIC ROLEX EXPLORER "

clearly this is not the case, as he then states (in smaller print) " Channel Diamond Bezel - Aftermarket"

Comments such as "CHECKED BY OUR IN HOUSE CERTIFIED ROLEX WATCHMAKER THAT NOT ONLY PASSED .. HAD GONE BEYOND ROLEX WATERPROOF STANDARDS" leave me more than a little cold.......I would not buy from this seller.......

I'm with you on that one. I love my diamond dial DJ, but diamonds just don't look right on the sport watches to me. The only exception to that I can think of it the serti dial on a TT Sub.
