There have been some clever photoshop scam attempts on here recently I'd put nothing past someone trying to sell a $24,000 watch.

*don't take it personal*

Was thinking that myself, hence the questions. However in the second picture it does show a different time.

The handwriting is partially out of focus, which I would expect for a macro photo.

The day and date are the same.  Its quite likely that handling the watch gave it energy to advance for another hour when the picture was taken.  I'm assuming this is an automatic.

Again, all it takes is for someone to call the retail store, using any number off the website, to verify.  Just call and ask if they accept bitcoin for any piece they offer.   Just deal with them directly.

Now, you believe?


I know this is from an angle and all.. But on an authentic Rolex, the date is exactly in the center of the magnified area.

That's just how it looks from an angle - I just compared it to my watch.

By the way: Overstock doesn't have the exact same model, but I found a very similar model at a significantly lower price.

On quick observation, I'd think the price difference is due to the ring of diamonds.  Depends on how much bling you're looking for!   Grin

Ah yep, that could be the reason. I just compared the model number (18238 vs. 18038)

It looks like the inner ring has diamonds as well, I wonder how many carats total?

How about adding the watch with piece of paper that write your Bitcointak's username ?
How much do you sell ? My budget kindda low  Embarrassed

Hi, I have just did the photo. Just like you wanted. You can e-mail us: info@grayandsons.com or call. We have any others brands like Omega or Patek Philipe.
If you are interested I can send you photos (more professional ).

The date on a Rolex is centred. This date looks like its slightly off.

This is a quote from : http://www.bobswatches.com/rolex-blog/rolex-info/the-top-ten-ways-to-spot-a-fake-rolex.html

3. The Magnification

Once you have the Rolex in front of you where you can can view it with your own eyes there a lot more ways to tell if it’s real or fake. On Rolex watches with a date (DateJust, Submariner, etc…) the date has to be very small to work properly and so Rolex adds a magnification glass, or Cyclops window,  to allow the wearer to see it more easily. On all Rolex models the magnification is 2.5X so

the date really jumps out at you. On fake Rolex watches the magnification is often much lower at 1.5X so the date looks small and more difficult to see. This is a huge tell tale sign of a fake Rolex.

I own a genuine Rolex watch. This one looks real, but I don't see a proof that OP actually owns it.

He did post a picture with his name on a page so I guess it proves that he owns it.

For $17,000 ? No thanks Wink I'll stick with my Moto 360.

OP is not answering some very basic questions which is not a good sign.

If they accept BTC in store, I would rather send someone over to buy it for me than buy it online, even if it's protected by escrow.

Not saying this is not a legitimate offer, but it's way too difficult to separate truth from fake on these kind of deals, so it's not worth the risk in my opinion.

I can't vouch for OP, but Overstock.com works if you need a Rolex

Is this where you purchased your Rolex?

Always be careful where buying a preowned Rolex.   I would trust grayandsons in store, or any factory authorized dealer.  Cost is irrelevant if you end up with a counterfeit.

I've already purchased a Rolex from Gray & Sons, although it was through BitPremier. Shipping was fast and the watch was exactly as described.
Now that I know I can purchase from them directly using coinbase I think It time to do some shopping.

OP, are you Rich, and what's your best price on http://www.grayandsons.com/product/26220/Montblanc (MontBlanc Meisterstuck PL11220)
