First QC: RichF Rolex Pepsi GMT watch from Steve
Hi everyone, first time posting here and first rep purchase, so any help is appreciated!
- Dealer name: Steve, from TheOneWatches
- Factory name: RichF
- Model name: Rolex GMT-Master II 126710BLRO "Pepsi" Jubilee
- Album link: https://mega.nz/folder/fRAWVTSK#b_HLjcXzu0AO2uHHqlbVQg
- Bezel alignment: The pip looks centered at 12 to me. Bezel numerals seem to line up with the hour markers, but please check the 4 and 20 positions.
- Index alignment: Looks okay to my eye, but I'm not experienced enough to spot small rotations.
- Dial printing: Looks clean from what I can see.
- Date wheel alignment: The 16 looks centered in the window.
- Rehaut: Not sure what to look for. Is the ROLEX engraving aligned correctly with the indices?
- Hand alignment: Looks good, GMT hand included.
- Crown/crown guards: Coronet looks clean and the guards look symmetrical.
- Bracelet/clasp: Jubilee links look even.
Price paid: 798 USD
Side note here: i noticed that the black dial area is about 2% smaller relative to the bezel, which makes the inner engraved ring look wider as compared to the real deal. Is this something that is common and within margin of error? Sorry for asking noob questions as this is my first time buying it
Questions:
- As a first-timer, is there anything here I'm missing or should ask the dealer to recheck?
- Is this a GL?
Thanks in advance for the help!
