I need some opinions on this 16622 bracelet and bezel

I am looking to purchase a bezel and band that was from of a Rolex 16622 yacht master. I would appreciate some advice on if they look to be authentic. The band looks good but the numbers in the clasp look different from ones I send before and the backside of the bezel looks different then ones I have seen in photos. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I’m not completely sure to be honest. It is being sold for parts and the dial had me worried as I seen most with a Rolex stamp and 950 on the back. I’m assuming the watch fell victim to a basement watchmaker and was sold off for parts.

Dial clearly isn't a solid piece of platinum.. I don't know what to make of that. Thin font bezel didn't come on that bracelet. Bezel could be fake.. I'd be more help if I was sober I'm sure.

Yeah the dial makes me think it is not authentic. I didn’t notice that about the bezel. I would assume if the bezel and dial are fake the band would be as well.

That bracelet is 100% fake. If the bezel came from the same watch then it is also most likely fake. That dial is fake too. Rolex doesnt glue lume plots onto the dial plate.

I have never personally owned that reference but it all looks “off” to me.

There's a reason you don't buy when drunk.
