Leather Strap Embossed with Rolex

Could anyone help. Is this a genuine Rolex strap?

Many thanks

No expert here. But looks 'suspect' to me. Rolex stamp looks to be a bit heavy handed toward the right side as opposed to the left. Not an even embossing. Also, the Rolex crown has 5 points. The stamp/embossed crown depicts 6? The crown is also a bit round and fat as opposed to being a bit taller and leaner as it should be. But again, this is solely an amateurs observations.

My Rolex lizard straps are printed laterally along the strap in gold colored print. Not the same at all..

No. Rolex straps have a different interior side, and as stated, prints are lengthwise.

Don't think it's genuine. Never seen one like this. Usually gold print.

Fake - in my opinion, for a few reasons
