AP RO fake?

Hello all -

Would you say this RO is a fake? It’s from a seller called Noblesse LP on chrono24 that has been flagged by the community before but he insists it’s legit.

Personally, I think something’s off but opinions appreciated!

EDIT: It’s supposed to be a 15202ST from 2018.

Screw head notches out of alignment. No way that is genuine.

The videos I’ve seen on spotting fakes say that they have trouble lining up the dual batons at the 12 o’clock position. To my eyes they do not line up properly in your photo.

That’s interesting - I agree, the batons don’t seem to line up exactly right.

The screw at 4 o'clock. Slot will align with the edge of the crystal on the real thing. It doesn't in the 2nd photo

It's easy to tell the difference between fake and real movement, but on these pictures it's covered with saran wrap

Watch looks off on these bad pictures
