No way of telling for sure with that picture . Is this a Ebay listing ? If so post a link .
So far the "general shape" of the clasp would seem correct .

do you know what the clasp should have on it? i am assuming it should be engraved and not stamped or printed with acid correct?

No acid that is for sure .

Depending age ( date of manufacture ) of the clasp there should / could be the scroll work , 18K gold stamp (750) oval with rolexsa , clasp model number , Geneva Swiss made and the clasp date code in the highlighted square depending age ( date of manufacture ) of the clasp

Exactly .. I have a litter of little flying zebra striped piglets .. care to buy one ?

Sometimes I wonder .. what is worse ?: Offering such things for sale or considering buying them ?
