Sorry, with these pics you can be happy if one recognizes it is a submariner No high resolution pics of the watch?

Agreed, we need to see higher resolution to be able to make out differences. The second picture does seem to indicate an off-center pip.

Hi. Obviously proper pics needed. Quite often with Rolex the price will tell you if it is genuine. Owners of the real ones generally know what they are worth and call quite easily get that in a sale. If it sounds too good to be true then it is too good to be true. Cheers Phil
PS How much was it

Send it to Rolex for a service. If they send it back and charge you you're good to go. If it's a fake they will destroy it. :imok:

Hi. Here in Aus. All servicing is done by Rolex. They don’t sell parts to anyone. Any other watchmaker doing the services are using gray area imported bits (generally from the USA). Any fakes are destroyed using a large metal cut off saw. Cheers Phil

I hope it plays out ok for you, Chris. Be aware you may need to provide evidence that it's a fake - a letter from an AD perhaps? Can you ask the seller to email you the higher res images?

Probably wise. The chances you’ve missed a bargain and wouldn’t have had to enter a dispute are definitely quite small.

As true as that looked, always "Buy the Seller" with expensive watches.
