Please help! Rolex newb here

Wanted to confirm authenticity before I drive to another state to pick this watch up. I apologize for picture quality, these are the only pics seller sent me. Any chance to confirm authenticity or replica? And place a value. This is my first Rolex purchase and I know there are a ton of replicas out there so I don't want to get burnt. Thanks in advance!

The dial is wrong, the Bezel the wrong, the bracelet is crap, the easiest way to tell is the calendar date is garbage....

Welcome to TRF by the way

I don't believe the YM has a trip lock crown.
