It doesn't look like a fake movement to me, rather one that has had some parts replaced with those that should be fitted to another model.

The balance assembly looks like one for a 1520 movement but I can't tell from the photographs which of two scenarios has happened.

Either this could be a 1520 movement fitted with a 1570 auto winder mechanism or it could be a 1570 movement fitted with a 1520 balance assembly.

Both movements operate with a frequency of 19800 beats per hour and I believe both the balance assembly and the auto winder mechanism are easily swapped.

The D prefixing the movement serial number indicates the main plate was originally for a date movement so maybe this is a 1575 movement with a swapped balance assembly.

The thing I notice is mis-spaced kerning between the two examples.

It’s real, it’s a 1560 fitted with a 1570 upper winding bridge.

I don't really like the font of the serial but can't find any close comparables so it may be legit as well

It’s fine. If it bothers you, a 1560 bridge can be picked up for little money.
