I've been reading alot about the 1992 thing and for the most part I think it might be fake. I can also dive with it and whatever... if you need more pics of it let me know of what :D

It's a fake...the clasp alone is a dead giveaway...."stainless steel"...

To elaborate: Your watch is a replica of a "Beach" edition Cosmograph Daytona. These watches were executed in 18k white gold, and had mother of pearl dials and coordinatind straps made out of lizard and finished with an 18k white gold buckle. Also- It is EXTREMELY RARE to find a Rolex with any kind of engraving on the back...unless it's on the SD or SDDS...IMHO.
