Anyone here scored the 6263 Daytona on eBay?

Wondering if anyone here scored this? It went for 12.05k EUR which is a steal if the watch is indeed legit.

Was watching the auction closely but missed the deadline by a bit as I was out in town. Seller has zero feedback on eBay.

1982 Rolex Daytona ref. 6263 “Silver Big Red w/ Papers”


Reference 6263 with bakelite bezel

7.2 mil serial number circa 1982 production

Excellent vintage condition case with sharp and thick lugs. Original pushers and crown. Clear numbers between the lugs.

Dial is original, 98% flawless with all lume plots intact. No scratches or chips. There is a small area by 11 on edge that’s darker, perhaps old oil from previous service. Hands are original and tritium.

Bezel is original and period correct.

Original Oyster bracelet with correct 571 ends.

Caseback is original, stamped 6239 which is ok.

Original 727 movement is in excellent running condition.

Watch comes with papers from Italian AD dated in 1984.

She's a scam, believe it.

Update: ha so I always thought that the background looked uncannily familiar. It turns out this should belong to the watch dealer who goes by the website “Luna Oyster”.

Damn this unscrupulous ebay sellers! Hope the buyer realises this before he commits.

100% scam

If it’s too good to be true...

I don't think there is much protection if one is foolish enough to pay with direct money transfer as this seller had/ instructed/demanded.

Just for education purposes, what were the red flags of the watch?

If an ebay seller has 0 feedback...... thats a red flag especially selling a watch of this importance and with professional pictures most probably used from another source...

Watch was good, eBay seller was not. Photos were stolen for this bogus auction.

oh dang i see my bad sorry for the confusion thanks for clearing it up 👍
