Hi guys, let me explain all the things that are wrong with the watch. Either the seller was scammed or he is being naive.

First of: The date font is wrong

Second: The DW is left justified. I have never seen a Rolex with this issue but I have seen fakes with this exact issue.

Third, though the insert is covered, the silver platinum filling is too dark. Genuine platinum is lighter in color than this rep and I have seen this rep insert.

Then, we got the crystal. It is previous obvious that the crystal is missing the "black hole" effect caused by the AR coating on the cyclops.

Then lets talk about the dial. The biggest tell about the dial being fake is the 6 and 9 marker. These markers are wider on a rep dial than the genuine. Rolex genuine markers have round edges and not 90 degree

Lastly, look at the clasp, esp the part the flips over to the clasp. Do you see how the arms are not straight and bent. This is one of the most common issue found in reps due to their poor quality control.
