This is why I suggested for full serial, ref, and caseback stamps. The fonts are suspect and sloppy in the wrong places - perfect fonts are suspect too. Having the full serial can show additional mistakes on the engraving.
Without opening a can of worms, I have seen a handful of suspect and likely fake cases on a major site or two.

Serial doesn’t match up

I could really use help evaluating my engravings, but it is really hard to take close up pics. |

Get a Moment lens and case for your smart phone and a lot of trial and error ; )
Zoom and remote shutter also help

So hard to say anything definitive due to the resolution of those photos. I tried to sharpen them up a bit… Of course, it may go without saying, but… Engravings are not the only thing to evaluate if you have concerns about your watch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
