An Inherited rolex. Is it fake?

Greetings, I wonder if this rolex, which was given to my grandfather as a gift 20 years ago, is original. My grandfather passed away and I inherited it. The memory is important. I am just curious about its originality.
I cant post photo link because of my account is new.
What can i do about that?

Generally grandfathers' watches don't have a terribly good rep around here
My guess is this one will be the same

You can attach photos even now. Hit the “post reply” button (not quick reply), make sure the photo is no larger than 1250 pixels in either direction, and under 293KB file size, and upload.

I suspect it’s fake but we’ll wait for some pics!

And who the watch is from makes absolutely no difference in assessing it.

Anybody can attach and post an image as long as it meets the size requirements of the image type.

Even if it’s eventually a fake, I’ll advise you cherish it and keep the tradition going. It should be a privilege, just be grateful it still tells time.
