Bracelet 93250, Replica?

Hi everyone!

I have been offered this 93250 bracelet, supposedly from a 16610 (2004)

I do not know why but something just does not feel right to me... Am I being too skeptical?

Please let me know your opinion.

Thanks in advance!

E06 relates to 2006/7 and usually fitted to a Z serial watch. E06 happens to be the code used on the bracelet of the high end fake 16610's. There are lots of E06 bracelets just like that one being offered as genuine when they're not, be careful.

The easy tell on this particular fake E06 bracelet is to check the underside of the little flip lock on the clasp, it's a shiny mirror finish on the fake but a nice brushed finish on a genuine bracelet. Also, this fake E06 clasp feels thin and flimsy compared to the real one - so much that the edges of the clasps hooked edges will be sharp.

This one is fake, I can see the shiny flip lock described above.
