I noticed the lume too. Also look at the "Geneva" and "Swiss made". They're crooked. Crown on clasp is shoddy and crystal doesn't look green. Only the gasket.

Why a terrible fake? I would not even be sure that this one really is a fake. Please quote reasons as forum rules say!

And Angle Detail on second hand is wrong where it zig-zags. Band ends are not crisply formed.

Rest assured. Rolex is the only company who can get the green crystals.

The "Rolex" lettering on the rehaut also does not line up with the minute markers.

Everything else aside the clasp is fake, outer coronet is horrible as is the scolling and stamping.
Compare the inside is worse.

Nothing, just the reasons mentioned did not lead me to the final conclusion of the watch being fake. The bracelet looks horrible, I agree, but the lume and the hands are not obviously fake as described. I don't contest your verdict, I just had the impression that these conclusions might be due to overmacroed pictures showing details you otherwise don't see. The watch is very weared for its age and already seems to have patina, but it could also be that it is a fake just made from worse materials. So, I didn't make my verdict, I just found the verdict made here too early. But anyway, I am not an expert on the new models, but a vintage man.
