That font is definitely fat




Yeah the subdial numbers arnt close to the inner edge like the gen and the ceramic bezel numbers are pretty dark. Should probably report this one lol

even the paperwork for the watch is for 116520 and not for 116500LN....also the zoomed out pics. Both are big red flags.

ok now saw, he's selling 116520 as modified to 116500...so that's a good cover...but the watch looks Noob for sure imo.

Like mentioned above, I don’t know if the watch is a gen 116520. Even if it is - Anybody who takes a gen Daytona and puts on a custom 116500 dial/bezel is an idiot. It’s true that some rep 116500 dials/bezel (like ARF and CF) are amazing but not worth putting on a full gen watch. What is this person thinking?

He does have a receipt but looks like they sold it to him at over msrp as well.

could care less, what do we get out of this for reporting it?

Saving someone from potentially wasting a lot of money & annoying the scammer is enough for some, not everyone does something to get a return.

Why do we have to get something out of it?

You are joking right? If we could save a guy from been scamed is that not enough? I hate scamers, and its awesome that members here have there eyes out and scanning ebay time to time and report scumbags.

My point is most likely be bought by some Rolex speculator that’s causing shortage in last couple years and not a true watch collector. Have no sympathy or the watch speculator/investor types.

At $18,000 plus, no one is speculating on it. If it was $12k, maybe although it still doesn't rationalize standing by and watching somekne get conned.

The reward is the warm and fuzzy feeling you get from doing the right thing.

Haha oh yeah, that’s weird last night I clicked on the description but the page was blank and I couldn’t view it but now I see. I was looking at those SEL’s as they aren’t as sharp in the corners and more rounded just like the noob. Don’t know why someone would do this and doesn’t come with original parts that were exchanged. Suspect lol
