Explorer 114270 real or fake

Hi guys,

Finally decided to bite the bullet and get a 114270. I've seen the below on Chrono24 but did just want to ask for opinion as to any red flags on this watch. Price was listed in the lower range but not out of the ordinary. One thing that I was unsure on was the font but after some research, it does seem like there was two font variations on the 114270. So any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

i am no expert but the "R" seems off in Rolex, and the corona claws at the crown seems curved.

overall i feel the look of the watch is not tidy enough to be a Rolex

I see. Well the watch got sold in the meantime anyway so I ended getting another one. Fingers crossed that one comes through ok.

Thanks
