Around a year ago, i was on my way to work but i was surprised to find a rolex on the floor,only defect was the strap was off. the watch doesnt look fake to me, but it took me a year to finally decide to go out and find out if it is, maybe you guys could help me...i attached some pictures aswell

The pics aren't displaying, but if it says "Winner 24 Hours Ad Daytona" (sic), it's a guaranteed fake. They only hand out the actual ones with such an engraving (spelt correctly) to the winners of the Daytona 24 Hour race, hence it would be extremely unlikely that you would find one lying on the floor

Edit: Managed to see the pics, and yes, it is indeed a fake. Sorry

Sorry to say it is indeed a fake. There's a whole host of things wrong with it, to highlight one of many, the bezel on a Daytona should not be able to rotate.
