GMT found in a pile of rubble...
So my brother in law is doing some building and found a watch in a pile of rubble. Any thoughts about authenticity? Looks like it could be a fake but thought it was worth checking.

That’s crazy ...
Is your brother in law a builder? Where did he find this? |

What are the tells on this one? The rehaut engraving looks like it’s printed to me and there is nothing between the lugs. Anything else obviously wrong?
