Nothing wrong with a new guy looking for info. Someone has built a knock-off using aftermarket parts and a wittnauer movement. Not real Rolex.

Is it a knock off or just a replaced movement in a real case since Rolex used just a Valjoux 72 at the time and Wittnaur used the same movement in their chronos?

Possible. Remember these watches very fairly cheap back in the day.

The people who sell the aftermarket dials and cases, sell a Rolex signed replacement bridge as well.
I wonder why they didn't replace that to.
