The forum doesn't and cant authenticate parts

My personal view on this, if its fake its a very good one.

Buy the seller, do you trust them? Why do you have doubts. Focus in on the clasp, ideally loupe the markings. A genuine Rolex clasp will have crisp markings under magnification. You will never see feathered edges on the lettering and on a bracelet of this era, it will be hand stamped.

P.S. if it helps, the MA stamped on the clasp dates this bracelet to 2005.

I cannot say with conviction that it is or is not authentic.
But I can say if you are not ok with what you have heard then you should do as much of your own research as possible.
You can search the internet and find a lot of information and you can go to a Rolex AD and see if they may be able to help.
That’s how I find answers and learn at the same time.
BTW, just so you know.
I did a quick internet search for 93250 authenticity and found your example is very questionable at best so I would not dismiss the fake replies.

Just to be clear, my response was not an opinion.

I think the better question(s) would be: How, where, and why do you come across so many fake bracelets?

When you've seen/handled/owned enough of them over the years to know, specific details stick out like sore thumbs when they are not correct. This one is better than most fakes, but it is still a fake.

So, let me ask you directly: Where are you coming across these fake bracelets with such frequency?
