Can you show a better picture of the date wheel? Can you get a macro shot of the crown on the crystal? I assume you don't want to show the movement?

I don't see anything glaring, but macro shots help a ton.

Does the Hulk have white bezel markings opposed to silver/platinum as other Rolex watches?

as mentioned macro shots of the bezel markings and pearl will help if you want to be 100%

How did you acquire it? Your current images look good so far.

If you already have it, take it to an AD.

Did you buy it or are you thinking about it? If you haven’t and the deal is too good to be true hence your question of authenticity, proceed with great caution and make sure seller is well vetted

Must be fake as the Rolex logo on the screw crown is perfectly aligned.

Looks good. About 82.7% sure from those pics.

You just have to open it up and take a loupe to the movement parts. No way to be certain from the outside.

If you have to ask, it's not worth it. With the lack of macro images this could easily be a replica. Even with pictures of the movement it could easily be a Franken with a real movement.

Thanks guys. Just curious, when I fully screw in the crown, it is upside down from the side, is that normal or have to rewind half turn to make the crown standing?

Looks authentic - nothing glaringly wrong. Just take it to an AD for piece of mind otherwise you're always going to doubt.

The coronet on the crown ends up wherever when screwed down. It is a random position and is not any indicator of genuine or fugazi.

You gently turn the crown in until it stops.
You do NOT need nor want to 'force' it tightly. A simple snugging-up is the way to go. The gaskets in there are what do the job. Hence no need to forcefully over-tighten the crown. Again, just snug. (Severe over-tightening may eventually damage the tube threads and the crown threads.)
