From your description, the watch is 100% counterfeit. Rolex never made any production models with clear case backs. Can you post some clear pix of it?

The numbered bezel on most Rolex watches is supposed to rotate.

I was going to post something about aftermarket glass backs on genuine Rolex watches, but the OP's second post made that point quite moot...

Flee market [sic] is actually quite apt...

The real ones don't have the label floating around in the backside......

May be the movement you see through the glass case back is just a small video .
