That was pretty shady...
Yes it seems as though his intention was to sell it as an authentic Rolex, with the "story" and all. Now that he was called out he has no other choice but to attempt to try to save some rep. Pretty messed up if you ask me..I'm just glad nobody got scammed here..
LOL REALLY??
Are you kidding?
Where is my 0.4 BTC?

Yeah, even the suggestion of taking a rolex to a pawn shop... They would never take a fake rolex, such things go for 10-$150 at most.

if you remove the band at the 12 side. and compare the number stamped there with the number on under the face and on the band the numbers should all match

Now I never had the intention to sell this as the real thing to fuck people over.
So you waited until post 12 to reveal the authenticity, including post 4 where you leave us to believe the origin of the watch to be unknown or shrouded in mystique.
Seems legit.

Hi, after everyone's input, all regarding the authenticity of the watch, while it may look somewhat genuine, it's actually a AAA Swiss replica, therefore it's not worth even 10 btc as some offered, while many people would like to own an Rolex for all sorts of reasons, this is what we wear when you don't want drop 30k for one. Now I never had the intention to sell this as the real thing to fuck people over. But it's a good buy for much less if you wanna achieve that Rolex look without breaking the bank.
You didn't exactly make that very clear in posts 1 & 4.
Almost sounds like a change of heart at an attempted scam due to Escrow requests to prove authenticity.

This watch bothers me. Strap stamps look OK.
I've never seen a day/date or prez with a plain bezel. Always fluted or diamond bezel. Maybe a non-us thing though.
Dial looks bad. Markers "look" wrong.
Day is very questionable - note the extra tall S in Tuesday. Unlike any day model I've seen, and I've owned many different models.
Edit: please provide better pics of the crown(knob). I'm either seeing glare or the plating is wearing off.
Edit2: gold rolexes have gold spring bars, these are obviously steel.

If the watche is authentic it is worth (more or less) 15k€ to 20k€
but without paper and box let say 14k€ is realistic price.
to OP : can u get it opened by a rolex shop or any shop ?
To all : the graving in the clasp looks dam genuine to me
With serial number we can get the model and find out the value pretty easily. For the sake of OP, might I also recommend http://www.bobswatches.com/sell-rolex-watch
They specialize in buying used rolexes and will give you a very speedy offer..probably better and quicker then youll get here.

It does look real, but with no paperwork it needs to be opened up to tell.

Can you give me an idea of a ball park price?? Also I would have to have this in hand to know if it was real so escrow would be a must.
I would like to know ball park of what you are looking for as well. Also, without any documents or authenticity here it's going to be a very tough sell. Where are you located because a local deal might be your best bet. I am very interested though as I am currently in the market for one.

Maybe a good idea to share the amount the local pawn shop was willing to give you. Pawn shops do undercut by a lot (they have a physical store), but I expect people here to do the same (such is their right).
I do hope you'll be able to resolve the issues you're facing. Good luck!

This!
If I ever sell something such as old items such as a watch then I always pop down to the pawn shop and see what they offer me.
