Somebody stringing somebody, that’s for sure. I thought it was OP stringing us, but now I think Rolex is stringing him. What do you think?

I am usually skeptical because so many people foist false narratives upon us here. But I believe the OP is genuinely sharing a unique find of his.

So I wouldn't say "stringing" - the pace of new information is slow but...

I believe OP is working to get authentication and Rolex is working in their restoration atelier at their pace.

Patience will be required - especially when "1-post wonders" come along and stir the pot...

You’re right in saying that the Rolex Heritage dept will work at their own pace especially if it’s a unique watch like mine. So i have learned to be patient and just hope for the best.

This is well said. I share your typical skepticism. Here, it does seem like there is a legitimate inquiry, and Rolex is taking an unbelievably long time.
