Can anyone give me some pointers regarding this insert?

Real or fake, and why?

The insert is fake. I see they are sold on ebay quite regularly.

We generally don't point out specific deficiencies in fake watches or parts. Wouldn't want to provide information publicly as to provide the Producers Of Fake Watches And Parts the opportunity to improve their products.

If you spend some time on this Sub-Forum, you will gradually acquire some of the knowledge it takes to spot the "Tells" of counterfeit watches and parts.
