A friend was offered this watch

A friend of mine sent me this picture.

I know it's probably not enough to go by, but thought I would ask you guys and see what you think.

Will try and get more pictures.

It's being offered at 17k.

Way overpriced......depending on whether its a single or double quick and whether its a solid link or hollow link and new clasp versus old clasp these will go between 8.5 to 15 without a diamond bezel that are easily sourced should that be your thing.

Hard to say much from one pic. Bezel is not authentic. Need lots of better pics to authentic a day date

You could go buy a new Rolex from an AD and have no doubts on it being authentic with 17k! 👍🏻

The ends links don't look to fit right to me but I'm no expert and the pic doesn't show them that well

I agree...

Not sure what it means but those end links don't look very good at all. Certainly not 17k good. Also, most of the ones I've seen with diamond dials have had small Roman Numerals at each hour marker. Not an expert by any means so...
