Real or fake? Please help :)

I've had this watch for probably 6 or 7 years now, never really paid any attention to it as I am not into wearing them (not my style :p), so now that I'm a little older and aware of what i could have, i was thinking of selling it. my father gave it to me and he makes quite a biy of money so he would have no reason to buy a fake, but I am still weary that it may br I'm really hoping it's not because my girlfriend and I could use the money to help us wiyh a big move we have coming up. Any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Also, it is stainless steal, if that helps at all. I'm trying to upload pictures but I'm on my phone and it's acting wonky so I'm gonna keep trying.

Sorry if you took my post the wrong way, I was just googling it and this website came up so i figured you guys could give me your opinions. It's not like I'm trying to sell it to any of you, honestly was just really curious.

Also, if it.helps at all, it has a rechargeable battery. By this i mean when you walk with it on your wrist (or shake it at all) it charges the battery and keeps it going. I doubt it will change anyones opinion on it though lol. I was really hoping it wasn't a fake but had a feeling it was. I'm sure i could get a little bit of cash from a pawn.shop haha.

I figured as such. I just read a few threads and people seemed to know what they were talking about so i figured it couldn't hurt to ask

While no pawn shop will give you a quarter for this watch, you would still try and push it on an unsuspecting person knowing full well that is it is fake?

That's not cool.

I don't know that anybody took your post the wrong way.. The engraving on the back flags it as a fake Rolex, that's all, and that's what you asked for...
