Here is a picture found online. Look at the balance on the left with one arm coming out. It is genuine. The 2 on the right are I believe the yuki and the angus counterfeit movements. I have not seen a Yuki with the engraving, but the parts are supposedly interchangeable with a real Rolex, so replacing the rotor assembly and the winding bridge would make it look very real... except for the non-freesprung balance.

That is the easiest, fastest way to tell that it is a fake movement. It literally only takes a couple of seconds.
