Day date magnification looks a little off
Hello
Was wondering on everyones thoughts on the following Rolex day date The magnification looks off on pictures and I had asked the seller this and he had said that it is simply the pic however I think different.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/171297483411...84.m1423.l2648 also with this watch being a 2006 should it not include a warranty card instead of a certificate of authenticity? Thanks Danny |

It may just be the pictures as seller has good rating. The watch is a Y serial so it date it to 2003. It may have been purchase new in in 2006. I started seeing warranty card for Z serial which is around 2007.

That watch should come with the certificate and not a card.

The magnification is not correct, maybe it's not a genuine crystal. I have heard that there is such sometimes nowadays.
Ask the seller what he thinks of it.

Aftermarket crystal maybe. It comes with the right papers for 2006.

I have done that and I still say the same. He prefer the president bracelet over the new solid one.

My guess would also be aftermarket parts on the watch... I would keep looking.
