Something wrong with this Daytona on Ebay

After carefully look at this watch. I noticed that the clasp is not for Daytona, if I'm not wrong then this clasp shoud be for Datejust.

link is below:

He said that he inherited this from an uncle who’s passed away.
Not sure if it is true or not.

Yep, I was just about to post the same watch. Good catch!

It is a fake, but a good fake. The clasp is obviously wrong, and the dial plots are off as well (too square/large). Of course the "deceased relative" story is always a red flag anyway!

His less than 100% feedback with 7 people is an indicator as well.

He got removed and then re-listed with more information on the watch. He gave the bracelet number is 78590 which is correct for new Daytona but the bracelet currently on the watch is NOT Daytona's bracelet. I think he probably copy this info. from someone else.
