Rolex Sub found at a demolition job site!!

[Repster23]

Hey guys! I currently work in construction sales and after cleaning up a demo job, I found this watch inside of the abandoned home. Strangely enough, the movement WORKS! Being new to the rep world, I am not sure if this is a gen or rep??? The watch looks beat up. Can someone please help me out as I want to know if I found something worth my while or not!

Thanks in advance!!

Without any proof or real knowledge, I'm going to say fake due to the fact that you don't leave a gen Rolex behind!! [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Also the pearl and caseback are funky...

I understand that. The home was an estate (upper class area) in Chicago.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated! The pearl has fallen off if you can't tell in the pics. I can post more pictures if that helps..

Rolex never made open casebacks

Thats the lowest of the low quality reps

It also says "deville" ummm... devilles are Omega's

Sorry man, i wish I had good news for you

By all means don't take my word for anything! I don't know the first thing about Rollies. But here's some supporters with that crazy eagle eye laser focus that can detect a fake from pics.

Guys its fake as fak...sorry to say that,but its a rep and a low grade one..probably worth 50$...

 

[Roadman]

I'm gonna say rep. Not an expert but that caseback is weird, never seen one like that. Also there's very little magnification on the cyclops, silver rings surrounding the markers are too thick and the placement of the pearl is too low. Logo and font look a little off as well but that could just be me! Not to mention those links...

Don't tease the man @tripdog!
Didn't Rolex make 3 models with see through caseback ever? In the 50s? No expert, but fake.

Man, this is the one you´ll have to keep and cherish as 3 years down the road you will remember how it all started. Great find and love the story, but fake as can be

Too funny! I was rummaging through the house and I saw it and I was like holy SH**! I guess I and my business partner got our hopes up [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848]

It's beautiful. The dial is a fairly rare nipple dial and the case back is an aftermarket upgrade. Very valuable.

Agreed. It just needs to be cleaned up.
