Fake White Gold Daytona

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...%3D4%26ps%3D42

this White Gold Daytona has a catalog picture for the front of the watch and the back shot looks like a stolen one from one of the two well known TRF member's for sale posts. It may even be a SS in the picture.
Let's see what the experts say.

This one of the worst adds I have seen for a "Rolex" on Ebay. I wonder how long they will put up with this kind of stuff after the Louis Vuitton lawsuit.

This seller has been an E-Bay seller since May 16, 2002 and has 785 sales. I looked through pages and pages of feedback and only saw 5 negatives. All were disputed by the seller in some fashion. This means the rest of the feedback was positive. In fine print on the picture that is claimed to be a catalog photo is the website; www.rolexandwatches.com from the company; Rolex and Watches, Inc. The photo may be something from the sellers actual store as it does have an actual website and may have an actual store. Here is the link to the website: http://www.rolexandwatches.com/.

I am not seeing an issue here.

There r alot of Rolexs online for sale, how can we all be sure that the watch we want to buy is real. The fakes r so well made, even the mov't look alike. does anyone know how to tell 4 sure if it is real or NOT.

this thread is gay.... nothing in that eBay ad proves the watch doesn't exist, or is a fake.. the sellers card is IN the friggin pic.. the one shitty picture really doesn't do the watch justice.

I do find it odd they would be trying to sell a watch for over $20k and not even bother to throw up a few pics of it. Maybe a few good pics of the actual watch would curb any reservations..

With all the fakes and people being cautious with fakes to begin with, its kinda pointless to post an auction with this lack of detail. Hell, I post up 4-6 pictures just to sell a motorcycle helmet...

Buy from an AD, or someone with a good rep for selling these watches.

Let's be a bit more careful with the badmouthing.

This seller has sold a LOT of Rolex watches for a long long time and has the feedback to back it up.

If in doubt, say nowt.
