Authenticity? A little dubious...

Hey all,

A friend of mine just sent me this pic claiming he just bought a Rolex. I'm a little more than jealous but something just feels... off. I'd love to be able to call him out on it if its fake but buy him many beers if its real.

Thoughts?

There is nothing that looks out of place.....bezel numbers look correct, coronet on dial looks good. Engraved rehaut seems to line up with the second markers.....

I think you may owe someone a beer

It looks good to me, if you have any more images from another angle it may help?

Your friend is more successful and better looking than you. At least that is how I read the subtext.
