Watch is no longer for sale on this forum.... This is absurd....

I have sold several watches over the years (Paneria, IWC, Etc) all private party via the internet and have never been scrutinized in this manner...

I have been forthright with everyone from the start and have no more patience for this BS...

I am out...

It's your call. All that was asked was for better pics, and this only after you were wondering why no one was interested. No one said your watch was not real. I mean, you gotta to understand that's it's difficult to show interest in something you can't see.

Scrutiny is warranted. You are not selling a T-Shirt. You are selling a high ticket Rolex. All we were asking for is some decent pics. That would have ended much of the questions. Your anger and refusal is all the answer needed.

Good luck in your sale elsewhere.

Listen, nobody is accusing you of anything. Of course we know what they look like, many of us own one.
The purpose of decent pics is not to "SEE" what it looks like but rather judge for ourselves if it's legit or not. Like I said, you required a couple weeks ago why you were not getting any action on your watch and kindly responded that better pics were needed. Today, your still pushing the watch but don't to provide decent pics. You can't anyone for not having any interest in your piece. I mean what's so hard with taking better pics when many advised you that that's what was needed. Playing victim is not going to solve much and you won't find much pity here...at least from me.

Good luck

We all know what a TT Blue Sub looks like. We were just asking to see what yours that is for sale looks like. The pics you provided are not going to get the watch sold. That is all we were advocating for.

Good luck.

I am not upset - I am just done with the process... I think you guys may have issues due to all the fakes out there... But if you keep running guys off then you will be missing out on some good deals....

Anyway - You guys enjoy your evening and when the next "newbie" posts a watch for sale and offers everything I did - dont run him off...

I don't think posting better pictures wasn't much to ask! I know he posted his info, I even checked his company web site...

Like I said. I never said is watch was not legit. Actually I was very polite through the whole thing. But he did ask at one point why no one was interested. Suggested better pictures and many asked for the same thing....sooooooo

Everyone just remember to follow the forum rules here, you can ask questions about the watch, but this is not a general discussion forum:

The photos just don't do the watch justice. A couple of nicer close ups using your
macro button on the camera (little flower if you have one) would help.
