Pretty certain it's fake.
The model number on top end of bracelet ( not even sure if right place but not I am not 100% on all fancier models. ) is for a platinum ( not gold from what I know) day date as far as I am aware. Not a gold datejust. Then again, maybe just the dial was changed to the incorrect one? Weird but possible

Definitely fake junk, no '18k' engraved on any of the back lugs and sticker is wrong.
Also gold plated because the colour of the 'gold' is wrong. Magification of the date is also wrong and diamonds are fake, probably zirconia as real ones sparkle differently.

"Diamonds" on the bezel aren't held in by the beads...they are just rhinestones glued into round holes. Fake on the worst level.
