Guest avitt Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 It looks nice...Recently refinished. Can the seller provide a picture of the back? (A picture around the end links could help to rule out a replica...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolfire Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 It looks nice...Recently refinished. Can the seller provide a picture of the back? (A picture around the end links could help to rule out a replica...) Agreed. The engravings on the endlinks, bracelet & clasp will show the difference. Good luck, B.

freddy333 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 In order to verify the legitimacy of a Rolex bracelet, you should always get good, clear close-ups of the 2 inner leaves of the clasp (the parts containing the coronet, model & date stamping. Without that, you are leaving alot to chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Can't add much more... But you'll always want to get a good shot of the clasp stampings, the end link stampings, pic of the first link stamping and also a good profile shot of a link or two as well as the clasp profile. One can tell a lot by those details... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vlydog Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Thank you all for the sound advice and opinions thus far. I have just asked to see more pictures and I am waiting for those to arrive. The bracelet is being sold by a veteran member of VRF and one who I have done business with before. The first pictures seem to tell that the bracelet was re-finished. If the new photos prove that this bracelet is authentic, what would be a fair price to offer?

Guest avitt Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 The first pic is a different bracelet...But the other pics looks good to me. (Is the riveted band also for sale?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
