Rehaut alignment of the R's and X's to the minute marks does not look good to me.

Yeah I agree. Nothing like mine, AD purchase. Some things look ok and some do not. I have no idea.

Better pictures would help. Some without a bunch of finger prints to start with.

Spellchecker strikes again

In reference to the notes regarding the rehaut:
Any time you look at an engraved bezel an angle, of COURSE the letters and dial markers are not going to align. It is called "perspective."

Looks fine to me, 12 o clock marker has rounded edges instead of flat/angular. That's usually how I tell. Rehaut being misaligned is pretty common.

To me the watch is ok, the reason is the pictures are pretty bad. Can you take clearer or HD shots for more clarity?

I’ve seen fakes with rounded edges so I would not take that as the reason, better clearer pictures are needed on this.

The "pip" looks off to me (too tall). FYI: The watch store I work at has had 2 fake Rolex 116610 Submariner Date watches come in in the last month with box, papers(one from Tournea Palm Beach location), matching hang tags, etc, . They were both super clones being offered for sale between $5000 to $6000. I was initially fooled, but the box looked wrong, the pip looked wrong, the warranty card was not dated nor name filled in. Two watchmakers (one Rolex trained) opened the case back and after a lengthy discussion determined it was fake.
I only saw one of these watches, the seller stated "it was a gift and not my thing" as the reason for selling. Maybe true, maybe not, but either way use caution with any non AD Rolex purchase!
