Alignment of the indices to the rehaut don't look right.

Personally i dont like the thickness of the font. Checked again and again and i would say this one is a fake. Normally the date font is much thicker.

Rehaut looks slightly off alignment. I would pass on this one.

Second hand is too long in the OP's watch

If it’s a fake it’s the best I’ve seen, as bezel numbers are a simple giveaway but they look good on this, perhaps a Franken then?

I still don’t know why people don’t do the nail test anymore?

If you can scratch the glass or side of the case, it’s not a real Rolex.

Or the water test. Boil water. Drop watch in. If the dial indices fall off, they’re glued. If not, they’re soldered = Real.

Ask anyone.

Space between GMT - MASTER II is not right. Also the dash “-“ looks off-centered and shorter.

Having compared pictures I have to agree but I’m still puzzled by bezel numbers? As I’ve never seen a fake with numbers this good

Help - is it the real deal? GMT-Master II 116710LN

The latest super fakes are getting scary good.

From the photos I would say it’s impossible to call either way.

However, my one concern would be the clasp.

Shouldn’t the part shown be highly polished & what is that in the close up below?

Looks like paint or some other kind of coating starting to peel or scratch off????

That would definitely not be right if it was.

That blade definitely doesn't look like Rolex quality. Red flag.

Might be late to the party but if you own that watch you can immediately tell it’s fake.
Most obviously the OY(ster) lettering. Way too close to each other.

Please educate yourself before posting utter nonsense as fact. The watch is genuine, it’s a dial variation produced between 2014 - 2015.

The amount of BS posted on here lately, and with such false certainty, is getting too much to bear.
