THIS IS 110% SCAM

This scammer has been trying sell a couple different Rolex. Here's the scam.

He will ask you for your location. He will then tell you he's someplace far from you. So if you say NY, he'll say NV.

He'll use these as references, they're ALL 100% BOGUS:
Mack - mackle6325@gmail.com - Originated from a Belgian Google Mail server
Lewis - lewismuirden@gmail.com - Originated from a Belgian Google Mail server
Valeen Tasco - valeentasco@gmail.com - Originated from a US/Kansas Google Mail server - SAME mail server as his current "ID", Derrick Brett.

He claims that he and his wife own several "beauty suppliers" such as Vancouver Beauty Supply(www.VancouverBeautySupply.com) and www.BelleLure.com
Both sites have a registration contact is Tyson Ku in Vancouver BC - Dunno the tie in, if any, to the scammer.

Also claims to be a "competitive powerlifter in the IPF."

So far he's used the names: Derrick Brett & Phillip Rolan

Emails from Phillip Rolan originated from a Yahoo mail server in California (he told me he was in Texas)
Emails from Derrick Brett originated from a Gmail mail server in Kansas which happens to be the same mail server as one of his references (valeentasco@gmail.com)

Pretty obvious that it's a scammer.
