Very strange Rolex Day Date - Help

I found this on a local website and the price is to good to miss it, but:
I called the seller and he told me that the watch is original, serial number engraved below 6 o'clock, bracelet also looks good, rehaut is ROLEX-ROLEX-ROLEX, but he also said that his movement isn't Rolex, an ETA or something like that, but the watch is all original except other movement than his original Rolex one.
All photos below.
Any thoughts ?? Is he worth an incredible low price ??

Can it be more fake?

He should take away the last two zeros and the price would still be too high.

While the seller already identified it as not genuine (ETA movement; probably a 2836), I wouldn't believe even the claim of otherwise "all original". There is no way that anyone would sell a 904L steel case so inexpensively. This is imitation through-and-through or built up from stolen parts.

The seller knew it has an ETA movement (which I doubt it even has), so he knew it was fake.

I guess it is possible. At least they spelled "Rolex" correctly.
