Contact Ebay Security

Being a newbie, I would not know jack-squat whether a Rolex was real or not. However, you pros who sniff out bad juju should contact Ebay Security. Your help can, at the very least, give them a heads up on possible bogus Rolexes and at the very most save some fool (like me!) from parting with his hard earned money. Also, they can ban the seller or even start prosecution.
Ebay is ramping up security and now going after the bad guys where possible.

Good that ebay is trying to do something on it's own so that it can protect potential buyers from scammers

There are several of us who contact E-bay security constantly to point out fakes and scams. Stick around and you can join in on the fun of mailing thieves who have no desire to work an honest job and wish to part you from your money. Welcome to TRF and you'll be a pro in no time. There are a lot of good people here and a lot of knowledge.
