To good to be true??

I'm trying to learn to tell the real from fakes. This one showed up on Craigslist in my little town. From the blurry pictures, I would say fake because of the un-magnified date and that "zero" marker on the dial (what is it really called). Also the ring looks to have points that are to sharp. What else am I missing?
Thanks for all your help.

Almost everything is wrong here. I think that you have made the right decision to stay away from this piece of junk.......

If you look up "POS" in the dictionary, you'll find a picture of this very watch.

Wow, a real POS there. He mentions he is not much of a Rolex guy, but would want to be wearing this piece of garbage? Doesn't make any sense at all. Flagged

Lol @ Texarkana.

I use to live there and have family there. I'm surprised anyone there is pulling a scam.
