Rolex

Hi Folks, I bought this watch and I think the dial is fake because it's Gilt and Gloss. The dial is very well done but it's Gilt and Gloss and I never seen a 1655 like this. I think the last Gilt Gloss Dials where made in the mid 60's and this watch is from mid 70's. I don't think it's original but sometimes I M wrong, does anyone know something about it? Thanks a lot

Translated means dodgy 

No message body

seller send me a bad picture of it on eBay, I will open a case there and get my money back.
Thanks a lot

And lesson learned: Do never buy no ze bay without all the guaranties...

Best,

Nicolas

With Rolex the dial is everything. This is a good example to learn a lesson to only by from reputable seller. A honest seller will simply take the watch back.

A lesson for everyone especially with any gilt dial Rolex is that a pictures never tells the real story so you have a trusted seller or visit the watch in person.

I wish you good luck. Credit card payment is always a good route for transaction over the Internet at least you have some recourse. Not the case with a wire.

 just found in the footer of the document written from Rolex the following sentence:

"The addition of non-genuine parts to any watch renders it a counterfeit as defined by Federal Law. It is therefore unlawful to sell or offer such modified watch for sale. Rolex will not service watches altered with non-genuine parts or accessories.
All parts are replaced on a trade-in basis."

the seller was trying to use this document as proof of the authenticity of the watch.

No the case will be closed in my favor.

Thanks all

Alex.

This was painful to read!  Hope you were able to sort this mess out!
