Very strange looking. I didn’t see anything like this. Maybe it’s fake

Would be interesting if it was. We have seen far crazier things from AP recently.

The screws seem to be very poorly aligned.

My initial thought as well.

OP - this piece is as real as Kim Kardashian’s derriere

Now that you mention it, the screws do look very poorly aligned.

Besides everything mentioned above also looks very much like PVD coated metal which you would be able to feel by its mass, even has a scratch (or something that looks like it) where the case meets the bracelet on the bottom.

If you take a picture of the movement and the side of the watch where the bracelet is supposed to have all the little screws or rivets or whatever you call them you will be able to tell more.

Besides the markers the picture also seems to have some off proportions but that could be due to camera and angle

100% was original and ceramic. Just the dial makes no sense….

That's kinda crazy if it is real. Must be piece unique

might be piece unique, the inverted 5 might mean something to the original owner

Movement looks legit. May be an aftermarket dial, most unique pieces state so on the back plate
