Could someone please help me authenticate.
I was given this watch a few years ago however I am having doubts on the authenticity, I did have the strap changed But I would appreciate any advice I don't really know a lot about watches other than how to set the time
Thank you for any help I really appreciate it |

Welcome to the forum. Rather than diagnosing the watch over a photo, I think the better question is about the financial standing of the person that gave you the watch, right?

If it was authentic, a Rolex Daytona LeMans 24hr winning watch would be worth a lot like $50k and up.
I don't known what is it but the dial looks off. The photo is bad so none of the usual shine and light play could be examined. Once you open it up, it certainly doesn't look authentic even to my amateur eyes. Really interested to know the circumstances in which you come to possess this watch. Might be worth keeping just for the story, assuming it's an interesting one �� |

The movement should look like this. Yours is pretty obvious, but for a good fake, pay attention to the balance wheel. I read it's the hardest to replicate properly.
