...well, this seller....

Err buddy Stan...yes this watch is listed by the same eBay Seller - Ibsober that had listed a 16800 questionable N series Sub with FAKE Diver links...!

That 16800 has been terrynated...!

As I told Terry I had no idea of the validity of the band. If you will look at the auction you will see we have ask people to bid accordingly as if only on the head. Other than closing the auction I really don't know what you want. I have voiced your opinion in my auction so I guess you did get a forum. Incidentally the 16800 was pullued because of the "N" serial I had two of these watches...john lutton and I had a long discussion and I even called Rolex Dallas about the serial. The movement is a 3035 the case is authentic yet I get the watch pulled because some gurus tell ebay its not possible to have a 16800 with an "N" serial. I will be glad to send the watch to either of you in the US...I'll pass on the Mayalsian trip and let you personally authenticate the watch or disprove the authenticity. As I have stated before it is not my intention to de-fraud anyone. The band on the Tudor looked good to me, but then you have proved you are much more knowledgeable in these matters, so please read the new item description and see if it is enough of a disclaimer to suit you or if as a forum you would like me to pull the watch down, stick it on an authentic jubilee with 90% stretch and relist the item.

I agree that it is an easy fix. I believe he is a perfect gentleman and spoke to him at length. I agree that he did not seem to be wanting to defraud anyone. The best solution is to replace the band with an original band or sell the watch as a head only. This is fixable as the watch very much appeared genuine.
