Is Rolex Turn-O-Graph Datejust Authentic?

The seller states that the watch is from 1991, Turn-O-Graph Datejust in steel and 14k gold. If I need to get more pictures of different parts of the watch, let me know. I can notify the seller to send me more pictures. Thanks

Thanks crowncollection. The only worry I have is the last time it was service was in 2002, however the seller describes the watch as fully functional, and keeps accurate time.

Thanks nick c. Do you think the fact that the watch hasn't been service since 2002 is a deal breaker? I really like the watch, but this fact is concerning to me.

Just have it serviced after you buy it... also a 1991 model would be 18k, not 14k, though I am sure the guy just wasn't aware when he listed it.

Depends on what you pay for it? It may or may not need a service, but I would figure a cost of a service into the cost of the watch.

Yeah it's 18k gold, that was a typo on my part. And I'd be paying around 3k for it, so do you think it's worth it? Thanks for the quick replies

Sounds about right.......if the watch is keeping accurate time then wear it for a while and then have it serviced. Another year ain't gonna kill it.
