Got a Rolex for Christmas...sorta

Well, my friend loves to get me gags gifts from his world travels, so I opened up this tiny little box to find this in it, obviously a knock off. I'll probably take it apart and mess around with the movement to see what it's like then toss it.

Well the date mag seems to be consistent with what Rolex sometimes offers lately at least

Do you have any watch making tools? If not, this will be a one way process
