Looks authentic to me.

London assay mark "L" = 1946?

You can see it all here

Hi Adam,

Thanks for the reply, the one i am looking at has the 6 in a different position to the link you sent me... looks like the seconds counter is higher up on the watch... is this a normal variation?

Movement looks same caliber to me, so I doubt sub seconds is different.
Note the shock protection both on balance wheel and escapement - that is quite unique to Rolex.
I am sure that movement is genuine

Regards
