is this Rolex original or fake f714983 ?

Hello guys, I was sorting through my old things, including my watch collection, and I found this watch. I remember getting it as a gift more than 10 years ago, but I don't know anything about it. Is it fake or real?
there is a number as shown in the photo it is : f714983
with thanks

the 18K stainless steel hallmark makes me smile; why oh why bother with such details?

It's not just fake, it is spectacularly ugly.

The good news is you don’t have to worry about it and can just throw it back wherever it came from.

It could easily set a record at Phillips, too bad the hands have been re-lumed...

How can you honestly say you got that as a gift and forgot about it. Nobody forgets about getting a Rolex. Your story is as bad as the watch.

Rolex never made a two tone Day Date for regular production.
