Icon20 Val. 727 - real or fake...?!!!

Hi there,

I got an offer on a movement which is working.
It seems to be a real 727c for a 6263/6265 and I am checking now the offer.
For sure I want to avoid to spend a lot of money for a fake....
What do you experts mean on this movement?

Thanks in forehand for supporting me!

That looks too scratched up and crudely finished to be a genuine movement.

The real McCoy would have a terrific finish.
