The movement is not a Rolex movement. The Rolex movements are quite distinctive.

The case looks very wrong as does the dial.

Also, no clear casebacks on any production Rolex with the exception (I think) of a few early GMTs.

The presence of a clear caseback doesn't in itself make a watch fake as some people apply aftermarket casebacks.

X2, I have seen many clear casebacks installed on genuine Rolex, shows the movement off quite nicely as for this little morsel, its a fake :
