Unless otherwise stated, the word “original” is used herein to mean “factory original Rolex”. So for example, if a watch description states that the watch is 100% original, or that the dial is “original”, it means that the watch is 100% factory Rolex and that the dial is a “factory Rolex” dial. It does NOT mean that the watch is in its original condition, or has all the same exact parts when it left the factory brand new.
All watches go through our 3 step certification process: in-house authentication, authorized service repair facilities, and lastly, an independent 3rd party watch authentication by WatchCSA provided for an additional fee at checkout.
