California Dial

Hey guys,
I have been wanting a california dial for a little while now, and today decided to cruise the 'bay.

Found 2 which look pretty cool, a tudor and a rolex... could you tell me anything about these watches, do they look genuine to you??

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MENS-OYSTER-PR...3286.m63.l1177

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TUDOR-PRINCE-O...3A1%7C294%3A50

I note the lack of "crown" on the winder of the vintage rolex, this looks odd to me, but I really know nothing about these watches...

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Chris

Thanks guys... certainly hadn't noticed that they were only 33mm....

Still pondering the risk... so "bump" for any other comment

Thanks,
Chris
