Name this bezel

Picked this up a few weeks ago, ref 1505 serial 1,230. the 0 in the ref# would indicate a smooth bezel it's looks more like a worn down fluted bezel to me. Any thoughts Thanks Chris sorry for the dark picture

It's an engine turned bezel, and it's genuine Rolex

Engine turned is what came to kind but it is not exactly what I am used to seeing.


I would call it a “Bottle cap” however as far as I know I just made that up.

They made a few variations of the engine turned bezels in both gold and stainless steel
