Now you are venturing into my turf, as I am somewhat of the regular over there with upwards of 6K posts...

While you are correct in that most pieces sold on the site that are Rolex offerings typically sell for alot, one also has to consider that those are in much better condition than the piece you are showing.

Also I find it somewhat suspect that you claim to have openend the case up, as anyone who knows anything about watches, and specifically Rolex knows that in order to do it correctly you need a bergeron table mounted case opener with a specific bit to fit the keyed/serrated back that Rolex uses...while a cheap butterfly handle style opener can be used you risk serious damage to the caseback and also the case itself.

$5k for a sub is about right. I really havent decided whether I want the GMT or the sub yet, but the sub is about $3800 whereas the GMT is $3400.

The other things to note about Rolex are their hollow bracelet links on all models except the Daytona, new Datejusts, Gold models, Yachtmaster (only in SS and Plat version though), and the Anniversary model GMTs...also they are notorious for their cheaper than most clasp construction....

As for your pricing I assume you are talking used and not sure about your GMT price....

The new MSRP for a Subdate in steel is $5,175, the GMT is $5,075..used Subs go from $3,200-3,900 depending on condition, GMTs sell for considerably less as they aren't that popular.

Horse ******.

Who is your bank? I have worked in the banking business for years (IT side, but many many of my friends/colleagues are loan officers, basic tellers, etc)

You closed the account, they want ALL activity to cease and desist on it. Most banks require you to turn your check blanks in - wait 2 weeks, and then close the account to make sure activity is stagnant. If your account was closed for more then 1 day - your checks are no good, have been reported as a closed account by 3rd party organizations that rate checks.

You truly are freaking pathetic. My god, what is your major malfunction?

Too many pics hosted at too many different sites!
I've really tried hard to stay out of this thread, but PAB just seems to be contradicting himself with every other post!
He should have done like he always does & copy these fake pics from the original sites and them post them on his "pics.apartment808.com" account.
LOL

You payed a FEW GRAND for a "pre-owned" watch?

Check out the timezone forums. Cheapest GMT you'll find is $3k.

Still no high res pics of the front and back eh? Camera broke or did you borrow that from the jeweler as well?

Would you like to see some? I've been making dinner.

Well, duh...Why the fvck would he be posting then? :roll:

1. Those pics are on a different host than first pics you posted.
2. Where is the "I owned VSTCobra" note that you posted with the first pics?

You are such a horrible liar. Everyone in this thread should feel insulted that you would think we were dumb enough to believe you.

LOLercakes PAB you are pathetic.

to be fair nobody has flat out proven it is NOT a rolex.

But he has not proven it is a real Rolex either. Lets see the inside of the watch and we can determine if it is real or not.

I do not own a case opener, otherwise I would be happy to crack it open.

I'm pretty sure it's a real Rolex, but I'm also pretty sure that:
1) He paid way too much
2) He is an attention whore

I have a submariner also, and his looks very cheap. But, I am not going off of that.


He said that he opened the back, and it has genuine movements, then he says later he cannot show us that (which would be proof) because he does not have the special opener to open up the back. Either way he's lying. Like usual. Just like with the Bank (I called, there is no rep of that name nor any letter adressed) or a crashed Neon by that Taco Bell in the pictures (I called the Taco Bell and checked police reports, no accident within the past year involving a car at that intersection), and PAB's auto auction experience is BS because I have acess to all manheim auction records and there are no reports of any of the sales he has made at any auction. Ebay also fails to bring up anything under his account of the Mustang clone that was ruined by a 16 year old. FFS need anymore proof PAB is a lying pathetic tool that deserves to be banned because he eitherwise needs to get off the intenet and get help for being nuts of making up lies on the internet, or be banned because he has an alias here and is having fun with everyone. Because if you need any more evidence, I have it.

Would you prefer I rehost them at apartment808? I hit my 80 meg limit there and had to go to another site.

The note is on the side, if you'd like I'd be happy to take more pics. I figured 2-3 posts of pics of the pwned sign would be enough but I guess you want it in every photot.

A. Riverside National Bank DOES employ a Nicole. Call the number, she works there.

B. The opener is back at my kewelers.

C. The neon was crashed by a Papa Johns not a Taco Bell

D. You dont have manheim access. I do.

E. Didnt buy the mustang on ebay, bought it off the sode of the road.

F. The 13 year old that ruined my auction was for a 1962 Impala.

Lets see, 6 things totally wrong.

Ah, an intelligent person. Nice to see you. I was tired of constantly proving SVT cobra wrong.

Yes, I'm aware of the rolex case opening criteria. Yes, I have used alternative openers. No, I havent broken a case or a back.

I was referring to used, because I'm not paying $5k for a new sub.

While i agree he is a lieing sack of ******. wich i have said many times.

I do not see anyone actually proving that the watch is NOT a Rolex. just a bunch of people saying that it is not.

while yes he has lied int his thread he may have a real rolex. The one he has is beat up and one of the cheaper models.



though i do kinda feel sorry for him. He may be actually telling the truth. trouble he has lied so often nobody beleives him. The stories he comes up with are so damn outragous its nuts. granted stuff like that does happen. just not as much as it seems to happen to him.
