Others will have to chime in who know more than me but here is my thought:

I count 10 links, you are missing either 2 or 3 links. In fact for that year, you should have a total of 13 links as mine does. I have a D serial (year 2005).
For a 2007 model, I thought it should be stamped 93250A not 93250, I think the difference has to do with solid end links.
While I think the bracelet is real, I wonder if it has been swopped out for a different years bracelet. I have a D serial Expl II, and compared it to mine. Mine is stamped 93250A. I am not 100% sure.

Yes noticed the missing links and I have seen some 07 with 93250 and 93250a as you mentioned so just want to be certain with the stamping/engravings

Its fake. That's a common fake code E06. The poor stamping on the blades gives it away and the fliplock rest area of the clasp is not like genuine and the underside of the fliplocker itself looks like it's polished, it should be all brushed.

No prob. Weird that I was first to reply, but now there are a bunch of replies ahead of mine.
You must have had several posts with the same question/topic going at once (and merged into one by mods).
Usually one thread per topic will do.

I will defer to others on the E06 stamping, but the rest of the bracelet looks OK to me. I compared it to mine, looks very very close.

Edit: I looked a little closer to the number of holes on the clasp, the picture shows 9 holes, mine has 7, so I think the clasp is fake. Also on the mini-lock piece I will call it, your picture has a dimple on the outside, mine does not.

Yours looks like a 78790A? Different buckle

EO6
Is also a genuine date - that does not make it fake
Lets see a photo of the engraving on inside of the end links

True. However, that was not the deciding factor here. The bracelet is 100% junk. No need for further pics.

Hi Eric
Just wanted to make clear EO6 can be authentic.

I have my suspicions on the bracelet, but for me anyway, I need to see the engraving to decide.

Quite a few "tells" that stand out like a sore thumb (and no need to expound further than that).

I am sorry you feel that way. I and perhaps others would like to learn. I do not think it violates forum policy.

I too would like to know so conclusively
But
We learned here teaching others also teaches the scammers.
So I respect we don’t post reasons.

It was an outstanding year for bracelets, quite akin to 1947 or 2015 for champagne
