Questionable DSSD

Doesn't look right. Date doesn't seem aligned.

Familiar story of an inheritance, and don't really know the value....

The details on the bezel look painted on and not platinum filled and the 30 at the bottom looks way off, fake for me!

Also the usual pass me down Rolex BS!

The seller and the watch don't add up, and I agree the lume doesn't look right. Not to mention his pictures suck.

Is it just me, or are some of the numbers on the bezel crooked?

There are a few flags so it's fake.

No point in speculating. The lume coloration is completely off
Amongs a few other issues.

The watch is counterfeit. Look no further than the pearl on the bezel insert. It is typical of the ones found on the counterfeits.

Everything wrong, font, size of letters, date, shine of letter lacquering, and I could go on and on...
