Fuschia GMT MASTER II insert

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a new insert for my 16710 GMT MASTER II, and i found this one on internet.
I would like to have your opinion on this insert, if it's real or aftermarket.
The "2" seems to be good (no hooked), the back seems to be good too (3 angles) and it's a serif insert (i don't know if serif aftermarket insert does exist)
But i've never seen before a little hole like that on the back. Is it normal ?

Thanks all

Aftermarket. Here's the ad, it says it there as well. https://www.ebay.com/itm/26539889856...item3dcb01cf87

The photos were sent to me without precision. Thanks for the announcement.
The reproductions are getting better and better, it’s crazy

You don't want a fuchsia insert on a GMT II anyway... Well maybe you do, but it wouldn't be correct.

Yes it wouldn’t be correct, but i would like to have a “funny” insert for the summer.
