My opinion:

Ensuring Authenticity: Genuine Rolex Products are sold exclusively through Authorized Rolex Dealers.

Plus, I even shopped the AD from witch I bought my Rolex. Some don't really know the product/have old watches (D and Z serials)/offer questionable service.

Royal de Versailles in Toronto gave me an immaculate service and I will not hesitate to drive the 1000 kilometers again to go there to have my watch serviced/repaired. My watch will only be touched by them.

I'd say the date number looks too small, guessing the cyclops is only 1.5X

I wouldn't buy, but I'm not the expert here

I definitely didn't intend on purchasing the aforementioned item but I though with 4 hours left and one bid at that price with a diamond dial being a GMT2, I sensed a fish with legs afoot.

the 12 o'clock triangle is not on dial straight,the bezel does not look right either.I grew up not far from that location Cliffside Park (its also where the ex NY gov did some "business" with a booking agent!)

It doesn't look right, and the model number is mis-stated as 116713. It should be 16713.

Exactly

Nice observation

Its a "Del Shannon Special" alright but you'd think they'd get the model number right, & gold through clasp on a 1998 TT

That bidder will be an awful sad cad if he is actually a legitimate bidder and purchases that watch. It is actually rather sad if you think about it. The ca hones on these ebay sellers are like a couple of Epcott Centers.

Real or not, I don't get the diamond dial. It's like putting a vinyl top on a Humvee.
