Icon5 need help with distinguishing if its fake

Hi guys. Is there any chance that this rolex watch is not fake? The band is not original.The owner states, this watch is older than 15 years or something.
Thanks for help in advance.

Pardon me, since I was unable to take more clear photos.

under the rolex logo its written "ROLEX" under that is OYSTERPERPETUAL and under that DAY-DATE. It is Quartz :P
On the back is written, WATER RESISTANT and STAINLESS STELL around the rolex logo and SWISS MOVT 23K 30M. IS there any chance that this watch is authentic?

'STAINLESS STELL' is never a good sign.

Pretty much everything you described/showed (or tried to show) is wrong.

Next time, move the camera a little further away from the watch or adjust the camera to macro mode. That may help in getting better photos.
