Represented as real, one of a US-only gold-filled Rolex. I suspect the band is not original. Photos attached. Is the watch real or fake .. or do I need better photos?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you all. Much appreciated.

And to our HK member ("Not took. Nor taken."): "took" in place of "taken" is a midwestern American ruralism, used in a purely colloquial sense. :-)

Band is correct as well. Rivet band looks like made by cromwell

That's ok, it's also used in various regions of England, too.

Did some more research, learned where to look. Model #1550, serial # says made in 1978. Band states it is Rolex USA, C+I, 79 14K GF.
