What's wrong with is 6239 movement?

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this Movement?
Sent out for OH and was told by the watchmaker that they found a custom part in the movement.
They suggested me to replace the entire Complete balance and the balance bridge.
Anyone knows where can I purchase genuine Rolex parts?

Thank you RF a for this space to share.

It looks rough. Considering the large amount of counterfeits out there, are you sure it is a genuine Rolex movement and not just a generic 722 with aftermarket and/or counterfeit Rolex parts?

I have attached a picture of a genuine Rolex 722 for you to compare with:

Do you mean all the parts are not original?

Also the case design look strange...it seem a 6263/5 screw pusher,

Have you nice pics of the ref/serial?

That is what i was hinting at, plates, bridges, screws, everything seems generic apart from the bridge that says Rolex that possibly is counterfeit.

Please post pictures of the whole watch as DarknerImperator suggests, in the worst case everything is counterfeit, let's hope not.

Oh, maybe a mod should move this to the watch out section? We have the counterfeit/aftermarket experts there. I can not confidently tell if it is good or bad from the pics you posted unfortunately but someone else might.

You will need much more than the parts they stated.

That watch and similar models are faked to the extreme. Be very careful out there.

Would be nice to point out who's selling as I suspect the seller will try to sell it again. That way you could help someone else the same way as you now were saved by knowledgable people on the forum.
