Stuvetjee 17 Posted October 30, 2013 Well the red sticker under the clasp is a sign of gen, but that cyclops looks weird. Maybe the angle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peakpower 0 Posted October 30, 2013 Well, the fact that he is willing to allow the watch to be authenticated at an AD is good. He also will only do business face-to-face at a bank location. But, the fact that he expects the buyer to pay for the authentication is a bunch of bull. However, I don't see any red flags. If I were a buyer, I'd meet him at an AD and verify the authenticity. However, I'd ask him to pay the cost of verifying it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted October 30, 2013 Definite rep, the blue/black divide doesn't go through the centre of the 6, it's off, one of the unfortunate flaws of the rep! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eadesy 6 Posted October 30, 2013 I'm struggling. Has the cyclops got AR or not? Can't really tell. Pictures aren't really the best on the website either. Hopefully some one will come along soon and give a more experienced answer than me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted October 31, 2013 Looks suspect to me also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rusty peters 0 Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Anybody that buys a Rolex for real money off Craigslist is far more of a man than I. The true definition of a gambler. Wait, It has a smooth sweep second hand? It has to be real, right? Edited October 31, 2013 by rusty peters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, I'd ask him to pay the cost of verifying it. +1 I would also add. Even though this detail is small and probably not relevant. I see he put down some paper towel to protect the crystal. Just based on that alone, I would add that to the list of "gen tell" signs. He cares enough to protect it, he probably has a gen in his hands. (Again. I'm probably wrong. But it's a detail I think is worth mentioning.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DG335 0 Posted October 31, 2013 Yep I googled that image as well. If you scroll through other gens it seems to shift around but maybe that's photo quality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted October 31, 2013 regardless of rep or gen, the fkin idioto is asking $9k?! FUCK THAT SHIT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobbylah 135 Posted October 31, 2013 Bezel looks good. Seems to be platinum dusting. Now I guess you could put a gen bezel on a rep. Also, every AD I have been to has not charged me to authenticate my watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odyseus 1 Posted November 2, 2013 It looks gen to me because the hand stack seems correct, although a better photo would help?? But the price??? WTF!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 996 Posted November 2, 2013 I would also add. Even though this detail is small and probably not relevant. I see he put down some paper towel to protect the crystal. Just based on that alone, I would add that to the list of "gen tell" signs. He cares enough to protect it, he probably has a gen in his hands. (Again. I'm probably wrong. But it's a detail I think is worth mentioning.) It's certainly relevant, nicely spotted. That's in fact a very good indicator IMO. I'd say gen, no one selling a fake is going to stipulate those conditions. I think Odyseus is on the money as well, the hand stack looks to be correct so either someone went to a lot of work or it's gen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twofake 0 Posted November 2, 2013 looks gen to me. Loved the U tube video of the review. Man that looks like a nice colored bezel! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gbkirsch 0 Posted November 8, 2013 I like that watch a lot but I guess it's not for everyone. I don't really want anymore reps at the moment but I may have to change my mind for one of these!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
