Wow interesting they’re already faking the new cards. Since they haven’t been out very long.

One thing to know about the new cards, they’re embedded with new RFID technology and if you bring your smart phone close to the new card it should automatically attempt to pull up the Rolex website on your browser. Very highly doubt they have faked this security feature… just fyi.

It might just be a fake movement and dial. You can easily put in a fake dial and movement. The card does not tell what color you get. I have a bright blue and turquoise, cards the same. The white tag will tell you the color. Turquoise is 124300-0006

Good info, I didn’t get to try this out

The movement was fake as well. Wasn’t smooth and the hands went counter clockwise when I turned the crown forward.

Glad you got it sorted but will add on the 32 series movement you do turn the winding crown counter clockwise to advance the hands.

OP41 Turquoise Dial Imperfection

I’d bet anything it was a dial swap only. Given the new style card matching serial numbers etc. it’s easy to actually get away with that sale had the dial not been broken. And even if you take to an AD or non AD jeweler and they only look at the movement, case, bracelet, but don’t closely inspect the dial.

Buy a silver or black OP for $7k swap with aftermarket dial and sell for $20k+ depending on when. Lol. Easy profit

The top of the rehaut before the crystal looked uneven and rough in some parts
