[Rolex] Verifying Serial Number
You can also watch this video about finding the Rolex Serial Number. You can also google your watch to find a similar model online and that way you can.
On an earlier thread someone put up a picture of a Rolex GMT BLNR and it had shown the serial number on the rehaut. Another user suggested that he remove the picture as someone could report to rolex (using this serial number) that it was their watch and it had been stolen, providing a serious problem to the true owner (user who put up the picture). This got me thinking about a catering of issues that could arise by buying a vintage/second hand Rolex and leads to my question - is there a place you can go to search if your rolex has been reported stolen?
For instance - I walk into a pawn shop, look to buy a rolex that appears authentic and am able to take the serial number visible on the watch and somehow search to make sure it hasn't been reported stolen.
It's not a problem I have personally, as I would always buy from AD (partially to avoid this situation) I'm simply curious, but for other consumers (be it in a pawn shop or Chrono 24) this seems like it would be a good resource.
Stolen Rolex Serial Number Check
TL;DR - Is there a place to check a Rolex serial number against the list Rolex has of stolen watches?
