Datejust Oyster 78360 503B. Fake? Help!

I just swapped my DJ Jubilee Bracelet of my original 2005 DJ for an oyster band (plus an additional $300). On the band closest to the head it reads 78360 with 503B on the end links. On the bracelet it reads 78590 and T2 above that. My main concern is that the bracelet is a bit stiff and is in nearly perfect condition. The 78590 is not directly below the "steelnox" which is cause for concern. Is this real? Please help!

Much better pics needed, the clarity of the stamping and scrolling is very important to see properly.

My first impression is not good. It is not good at all. The numbers are messy and the scroll quality looks poor.

...hmmmmmmm...

...pull the SCREWS and check to see if they have the distinct TAPERED shoulder where the thread meets the body of the screw.

...tapered = genuine LINK sections.

...however, based upon the 78360 on the first links, the clasp SHOULD ALSO have 78360.

Why on earth does 78360 bracelet have 78590 clasp? I think 78590 is a Tudor clasp. It's a put together bracelet at best.
