Help Appreciated Please

I have found this Rolex in my fathers belongings. There are no papers with it. It does have a box as shown in the pictures. The watch has not got a mark on it.

I really dont know whether this is real or not but cant see my dad having something that wasnt real....

Can anybody please tell me anything about it? Maybe it might be worth a good three course meal, lol

I have included some pictures

These are the numbers and all the info I can find on the watch:

On the dial it says: Oyster Perpetual Date Just

It has 12 diamonds spaced evenly around the dial

On the back of the watch bracelet there is the no. 18956, imprinted either side of the watch case.

On the clasp: the serial no: 78488 is visable. Just under that is the word Rolex, with the no. 750. then Geneve, then Swiss Made. 18k
