According to the description, it's an aftermarket bezel (and a refinished dial), because the watch shall "mimic" the white gold model. Apart from the bezel and the dial, it looks legit (e.g. rehaut is definitely gen).

Fuck me, you have to be a special kind of stupid to ruin a perfectly good gen sub like that

True that. But maybe they felt blue ;-)

I can see why someone would want to do it, but they ruined the dial when they could have bought a better quality rep dial and then included the original in the sale, and for fuck sake that bezel insert is one of the worse I've seen. Most of the aliexpress reps come with better

[Wriggles 12]

I have no idea if this is gen, I'll leave that to people who know Rolex, but the hyperbole in the sales spiel.....

 

 

We do not tolerate fraudulent scammers on ebay, in fact, we actually help ebay with their investigations by providing information on frauds. We have been told that our organization is responsible for the removal of 80% of all frauds who are kicked off ebay. This means that the time and effort that we put in to helping make ebay a safe trading environment is paying off.

 

80% of all frauds on eBay??? How do they get any work done, they must spend every waking minute if they're clearing out 80% of ebay fraudsters.....

Idiot can't make his mind up if its 5years or 2years warranty

The 2 year warranty is their famous Anaheim Jewellery warranty.

The 5 year is Rolex's own.

Doesn't make it clear if it's consecutively or concurrently. ( I am of course taking the piss)

 

Then again, don't Rolex reject warranty when non Rolex parts are installed, such as a custom dial and custom bezel insert, so the whole 5 year Rolex warranty is surely a steaming pile of sales BS.....

Look at the dial print

 

"SWISS-made"

 

The word "made" is two text fonts smaller

For such a high value sale, you would think they'd have someone who could string a proper sentence together in the sales pitch.

 

 

THAT IS MADE FOR THE $36,000 18K WHITE GOLD SUBMARINER, WHICH THIS WATCH WE ARE SELLING IS NOT.

 

 

Stinks of a con in my opinion.

Stinks of a con in my opinion.

 

Definitely.

 

Why anyone would buy a genuine watch of that value on eBay is beyond me. I wouldn't dream of spending that kind of coin without first buying the seller and actually getting my hands on the item.

That's really nice printing. Look at the word SWISS, then the word MADE. Totally different sized fonts.

 

Bid placed!

Aside from the bezel insert, that caught my eye almost immediately.

Also the print elsewhere on the dial is uneven with flash. So they put a crappy dial and insert on a gen. Many people put custom dials and iced bezels on their rollies.

No problem with that as long as it's disclosed. A little tacky hinting it's modified to look like the white gold model. that's crossing over to the rep world a little.

It's really not worth the money,

In my opinion they ruined the watch

[trailboss99 994]

Out and out fraud! Why do I say that? Because they know as well as I do that they are promoting a 5 year warranty from Rolex that will never be honoured due to their butchering of the piece. That dial is a disaster and as for the insert the less said the better on that one. Anaheim Jewellery, I am very disappointed in you guys.

Yeah that whole bezel looks pretty trashy. The seller has a good rating though.
