Fake 15010?
The things that concern me:
1. Writing between the lugs
2. The date stamp on the inner part of the clasp and the stamped crown
3. The the crown on the outer part of the clasp




What do you guys thing?

Watch head and movement look good, nothing glaring sticks out about the bracelet. Seems fine to me, looks like a nice example

I don't consider watches that have re-engraved serials unless there's a matching warranty to back it up.

So you think the serial has been re-engraved?

No, the serial number that you find between the lugs at 6 o'clock.

Looks great to me.
I have one just like it.
I don't think this model was a favorite for fakes.

Would be found in the case back if it were re engraved. I have no clue why you’re insinuating this one has been redone

I don't think there's anything to be worried about.

What clue? You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about apparently because there’s nothing wrong with that engraving lol
