Off the Strength of one picture impossible to say

It,s impossible to tell without a pic of the movement. The only thing I have noticed the crown looks a bit narrow compared to others pics I have seen on the net.

I think it may well be the real deal, but I also think the dial has been refinished due to lithe lack of crispness in the lettering.

I would say no. But i am not a Rolex expert

It would be good to se the movement, it should look like this.  Hopefully without the distorted hairspring!

It could be a trick of the light but the indices look as if they have a space between them and the upper dots except at 4 and 5 o'clock. That would never pass quality control at Rolex

I’ll say it’s the real thing because the hands are fine and well finished.

Thanks for you're input guy's! I'm trying to get hold of the watch now! If I manage to get hold of it, I'll post more pictures! Cheers

wis1971 thats a good find. It certainly looks like it.

I looked at the same one last night & I don't thinks it's far off, it was listed as £2600 [emoji44]

I wouldn't part with any money until it's had a good look at. Also I noticed it says Swiss at 6 o'clock should it not say "Swiss Made ?

Some of the older precisions said Swiss made or just Swiss. The movement pic will be the key, most on here will be able to verify it via a movement pic.

Also note that for this era/model, there are a lot of dial designs that are unusual for Rolex, and most aren't worth that much :-) for that sort of price I'd be looking for a beaten up submariner or similar..

[Joeydwatchmaker]

I agree with flyingwatchmaker. If verified real with a 18k case in good working condition I would only pay 500-700 at the most depending on condition. Retail for this would be 12-1500 max and honestly hard to find a buyer at that, in my opinion.

Many thanks for you're help guy's, unfortunately he wouldn't let me have a look at the watch in question! So your guess is as good as mine as to it authenticity!
