i love shots of "real" rolexes where the date wheel is rolling over to the next date. pretty much straight up says it's a fake, right?

I guess you could get that with a really fast shutter speed if you had a real rolex?

It's possible that the date mechanism is broken, but they should tell you that, otherwise the 1575 onward snap over in a millisecond.

I read an excellent technical article that I still have, explaining how difficult the design of the day date.
It's a pretty complicated complication, in it's own right
