Real or fake?

I need some advice on this pre-owned Rolex 16013 timepiece. I have been told that this has the original diamond dial and it's in excellent condition. Do you think it's a genuine Rolex? I uploaded some pictures. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks!

Please don't just say real or fake. I would appreciate if anyone who has good knowledge to comment on this and provide reasons for your opinion. If you have no ideas on this matter, please refrain from commenting. Thanks.

sorry. so many fake Rolex thread starts with "real or fake" and really have no background of the watch. Where did you find this watch that lead you to wonder the authenticity?
I did look at your pictures. To me, the crown looks off, the white dots above the marks look off.

This watch is from a local dealer that specializes in pre-owned watches. I attached pictures of the crown.

Sorry, You wont get your specifics on why it is or isn't legit. The experts here don't want to give the evil doers more specifics to hone their craft.

If you want a better response, ask that same local dealer that specializes in pre-owned watches to remove the back and post pics. He shouldn't have an issue with that if the watch is legit and has a possible buyer in you.

Hi
I can not tel from those photos if complete watch is genuine or fake - BUT it has got points of suspect to me.

The dial does not look original Rolex - may be an after market.

Others better may be able to 100% authenticate or Not, for me, a movement photo is needed now.
But I dont think dial is original
