Local seller to me.. here are some pics. He said a collection was passed down to him from a family member that had passed away.

REAL OR FAKE?

Fake. Also a very quick tell is to pull the crown out. Turn the crown clock wise. If the hands go clock wise that's a good start but again always meet at a jeweler to help you out

Really bad fake, not worth a nickel

From the first pic I could tell it was fake. Sooooo many things wrong with it.

I'm not so sure, you may want to take it into a Rolex jeweler to verify. I can see why some may say it is fake but after comparison to my archived photos it actually might be ok. If it was real it will be a Rolex 116333.
Look at this picture I have of a brand new one at a Rolex dealer:

I wasn't saying it is real. It is certainly a fake, I just think photos don't always show the whole story, things like parallax error, dirt and grime, angles and other things come into play, when in doubt a personal inspection is the best. This one has a lot of errors so I put the photos of a real one so he/she could see for themselves all of the problems.
