Terrible fake.
It might help if you had some worse pictures. Do you have any worse than these?

They could have at least put the right model number on the sticker. Combination of the photo quality and my unfamiliarity with Milgauss caused me to stop at that point.

Fake! Rolex no longer put sticker in the back of the watch, and that is a wrong style number.

Danny it's a very very poor replica! I'd walk away if you can, hope you've not been stung on it.
Where is it up for sale if you don't mind me asking? Mike. |

I personally wouldn't be dealing with this guy if he couldn't tell if that Milgauss was a fake or why he would be trying to sell fakes in the first place.

What you want to see is a warranty card with a serial number that matches the one on the case. A sales receipt from an AD would be nice, too. |

Wow that's bad and yeah you can even see in those pictures that is a fake Rolex. Be careful when something sounds too good to be true is because its not true.
Good luck! |

I bought mine from an AD and had a great experience. However, now i'm comfortable here on the forum, my next will come from one of the many great dealers on here with numerous feedback and people endorsing their services. The other thing I would say, is dont be considering what you are offered. Choose what you 'want' then find a trustworthy source to purchase it from. Dont go risking your hard earned cash anywhere else. Good luck, I hope you find what you're looking for.

1200 for that piece of shat? The stones look like an imbecile glued them on. Look at the ones from 6 up to 10, terrible. Rolex doesn't wrap their bracelets in plastic like that either. The box looks real. Which, if it is, would make it worth more than the watch. It's sickening that people see the box and think they're getting a good deal. I have a friend at work who tells me I could have got a Rolex on ebay for £500. I say yeah sure, a chinese one. And I get "No no, there's a box with it." Run.
