How about this *BlingeD* out DJ II??

Have any of you guys tumbled across this on ebay yet? It's a bit much for me but it looks like they did a decent job with it.. It's definitely not the worst thing I've come across.

Do you think that is the original band with altered center links?

they did a pretty good job setting the stones in the lugs - the look pretty close to how the diamond models come out of the factory to me!

I liked it but then I like some bling. But, fleabay scares the k-rap outta me. Especially on a large purchase such as that.

Looks fake to me.

I'm unconvinced it's a genuine Rolex.

The cyclops on a real Rolex magnifies the date window by 2.5X

This one looks a whole lot less than that. 1.5X is typical of Chinese fakes.

Only 12 g's? Good deal since the non diamond MSRP is 7500.
