I am by far no expert, the stampings between the lugs do not look good to me? Someone with far better knowledge will chime in soon.

Welcome to TRF. This properly belongs in the Watchout Forum but I think it is real. Other experts will probably chime in soon. The only difficulty I see is that the dial is not original to the watch. The case and bracelet look like 1990's. The dial I don't think came out until the last few years.

It looks fine to me. My only concern for you would be the shipping of the watch across the pond due to import taxes, etc...

I wouldn't touch it if there is any doubt!
Remember, anyone can post photos of a real Rolex and then send you a fake after your pay for it. Buy the seller, not just the timepiece!

There are too many good used watches out there on the net to be messing around with Fleabay. Buy one from a seller here on this forum that comes highly recommended by the members, or from over on TZ.
Just my 2c

I have no issue with people buying off of Fleecebay, but that said, you need to take discretion. If the deal is too good to be true it typically is. Buy the seller, because you can't hold the product. This seller has done some business lately, but it's not enough for me to feel comfortable, even though the watch looks legit.
