Need help with my Rolex DJ

Hi,

I need help from the experts here at TRF. I purchased a SS DJ from one of the sellers here on TRF and I took it to my AD for authentication. It is a 16014 with 8 mill serial. The AD pointed out the following issues and I wanted to know if they were legitimate:

Clasp on the bracelet: 62523H (the AD said it should be 62510).

They think that I should purchase a new jubilee bracelet and have service done on the watch as the acrylic crystal is also aftermarket.

The seller had listed that everything was 100% genuine and he is known on these forums. Not sure what i should do..

Try speaking to the seller from whom you bought the watch, if you have not done so.

Yeah, I'm trying to get a hold of him.

Additionally, the AD provided me a receipt that said the following:

- Links have been altered, note one screw on one link but not on another.
- Incorrect plexi crystal.

The total charge for service and jubilee is $860 plus $710.

I purchased the watch for $2500 so another 1500 and I could have gotten a newer DJ. Doesn't seem worth it..

Someone is going to post name the seller. I suggest talking to the seller and try to resolve before doing such.

If no response or no resolution please name to save us from the same headache.

Hopefully things will work out equitably for you and the seller.

You certainly have some issues your ad is correct your band is fake, that's a two tone band number, an original glass is not much of a problem. I would get a refund. So many sellers say 100% Rolex yet the wet h has an aftermarket dial and band.
