Real or Fake Milgauss. You be the judge!

Hello-
New member here. Longtime watch lover/buyer/collector but am new to Rolex and know nothing about them.

My Question is on a Milgauss as to real or bogus.
Here's the story. Found this on an online auction with no history, papers, certification, or even a promise of being authentic. Could be a great find or a total clunker.
Yah, I know sketchy as all get out, right, but it would be impossible to have it evaluated as this is just some random auction house.
But..... what if its the real deal?
I have not seen it in person but expect to this week and hopefully can get some better pics.

Any glaring problems here?

There are many aspects that prove this watch as a replica.

Kinda what I thought. The 9 marker looks sloppy for one.
Unfortunately someone will "overpay" for this and probably try to resell on flea bay

SOLD for $2505.00

Either you guys were wrong or someone got completely hosed!
Just curious for future reference what gives this away as a knockoff.
