Questionable Daytona or just bad pictures

I saw this on eBay today. Something is not right about this watch. And the fact that the seller who is a “jeweler” is using BS tags that belong to a Yacht Master only adds to my concern.

ROLEX MENS DAYTONA REF 116500 CERAMIC https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F292832146371

Cool. Just curious. The seller had hundreds of positive feedback and a ton of other watches for sale and is a jeweler. Why would they knowingly post a $22K pos watch as authentic

Not hundreds but a fair few and fairly good feedback
At first I was going to give benefit of doubt, but studying even attached photo, I was highly suspicious -->Fake
