Authenticity question

Hello, my daughter has inherited her late fathers watch which we received from his family just before Christmas. Is there any way of checking authenticity? I would like to have it valued for insurance purposes. Also it has a broken clasp due to an impact when he was wearing it. It’s an oyster perpetual day date, I can’t find the exact model/colour online. I have attached a photo. Thanks for any help.

It's fake. Not worth anything.

You can save yourself some money as insurance for it would be more than it is actually worth.

Let your daughter enjoy it as long as it lasts; even repairs would not be a good value decision.
