Newbie DJ questions before 1st purchase.

Hey Folks,

I’ve been saving for a DJ for many years. Found a watch I love and it’s a local guy I’m gonna meet next week to look at the watch.

The last month I’ve read a lot about watch’s, especially authenticity. Just want to make sure this looks good to y’all.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Here is the eBay listing # 113383410503

Sorry it wouldn’t let me post a link because I don’t have 10 post.

Looks OK. But I'd call RSC and see if they have record of the service and therefore the 2 year warranty.

That's quite a bit of bracelet stretch. Something to consider.

Ok I had no idea.

Is it something that will require replacing in the next 5-10 years? I will wear this watch everyday.

What kind of cost is associated with replacement?

Watch looks legit and card looks legit... just make sure the serial number on the card matches the one between the lugs... bracelet is definitely worn... it won't fall apart on you but will show significant spacing between links...

Michael Young in HK can fix that bracelet and remove the stretch.
