SCAM: 1985 Rolex GMT Master 16753

Watch was sold in 2010 by the real owner on the French Chronomania!
I am citing my email contact with him of today:
"As you can see, my nickname has been partially modified: mine is "michelro67" and he goes by the nick "michelro6"

My 16753 has been sold in 2010 as you can see here:
Coin des Affaires - Rolex GMT Master 16753 Nipples - de 1985 - boite et Papiers"

Don't get scammed!

: For sale is a Rolex GMT 16753 of 1985 called "eye of the
: tiger". What sets it apart from the 1675 is the presence of
: the fast date (it's all to its advantage ...)

: I've never been a fan of vintage but here are the reasons that made
: me fall for it:

: 1) especially and above all, his condition. Look at the pictures:
: the angles, the thickness of the horns and the case. This watch
: has never been polished in 25 years and is in a state close to
: new!
: - the plexi is like new without any trace.
: - the bracelet (which is complete) does not have the slightest
: distension.
: - the bezel does not have the slightest scratch!
: No need to add that absolutely everything is original !

: 2) the color and the reflections of the dial, the jubilee bracelet
: two tones, the bezel and the crown in gold, the dial nipples ...
: it is a configuration that I find very cordial and which confers
: a rendering hardly releasable in photo. You really have to have
: it on your wrist to understand ...

: 3) the presence of the box and papers . The rarity of these
: elements was another reason why I was not tempted by the
: vintage. For once, this reason is obsolete because you have here
: the box, the manual, the serial number certificate 86XXX
: (datanat manufacture to 1985) and the cardboard sleeve
: reprennant serial number.

: MY PRICE : $5000. It is very reasonable considering the above ...

: MY EMAIL: michelro6@collector.org

: I have made a number of transactions via watch forums. So check my
: username and related history, I would be happy to provide the
: references of my previous sales.
