Real or Fake Rolex 16610LV

Hey people, this is the first time posting on this page. I need your help and expertise with this Rolex 16610LV. Someone on eBay is selling it for $6500 and all I have is these 2 pictures. I asked for more pictures which he will send in the next couple of days. Any thoughts???

Real?

Hey guys, I'm interested to purchase a Rolex 16610LV from eBay and the seller had 2 pictures. Any thoughts on wether the watch is real or not. Thanks

It's a bad pic anyways- but I would agree fake... although the papers might not be.

Aside from the fact the paper 'garantie' being incorrect for a modern Rolex, and the watch looking off to me, I'd say stay far far away!

Fake paperwork too, you have too much paperwork. Also is that a 16610lv kermit but the pics show a ceramic 116610lv hulk.

I was also wondering why the double post a bit less than 15 minutes apart.

It was me for made the previous post, I wasn't sure if it was published, that's why I created this one too. My mistake is I just paid for it yesterday on eBay and I just messaged the seller asking him to cancel the transaction before I contact eBay. He hasn't shipped it yet

I just noticed that too. This is the 3rd time he's been told it's fake but clearly still thinks it's convincing.

OP, go back to the Lo Wu Shopping Plaza and ask for your $20 back.

I think he know it's fake, but thinks it's a good one, thus the constant attempts for validation.

Rolex sub

I'm waiting for you to upload more pix, I want to give you a hefty profit for the watch you "bought" based on 2 pix.

Multiple rolex experts tell him not to buy it and he buys it anyway?

If you want a sub there are probably 20 of them on here for sale right now and you won't have to worry about getting ripped off. I never understood why people come here then go take a risk elsewhere to save a couple hundred bucks. If you need to save a few hundred bucks a Rolex isn't for you IMO.
