Is this Rolex Daytona fake?

Hi Guys,

Thank you for your help in advance...
I have the occasion to buy this watch buy it looks kind of fake to me. First thing that I see is that there is no space between the words "units" and "per" as can be seen in the pics.
What do you guys think?

Thanks.

As fake as a $3 bill and not even a good fake.

No such watch was ever made by Rolex. Period.
In addition, the pushers are gold plated and no gold watch says 18K on a stainless steel back cover...

Did maxsold.com disclose it was a replica? It is clearly not genuine.

Maxsold doesn't say is a ROLEX so I am curious how much will the bid go...They also have what looks like a fake Tag Heuer and the seller photoshopped the pics to cover the Tag Heuer logo...Is very strange what's happening some times with Maxsold, they had bids for watches that looked like Rolex, the seller didn't say is a rolex and the pics were bad enough so you cannot really tell, but the bid went over 5 thousands. How can you bid for more than 5,000 if you cannot even see the pictures properly? Something is rigged there...

Somebody Actually Tried To Pass This POS Off As Genuine?

That thing by the Coronet looks to be the 3 O'clock hour marker. That begs the question, where's the 4 O'clock marker?

So It Must Be "White Gold" Right?

It doesn't even say Rolex on the dial. That's kind of a giveaway right there.

If you look carefully on the dial, the "rolex" word under the crown was masked by the owner who posted it on Maxsold...

Rare vintage piece. So rare, even Rolex wouldn’t recognize it one of their own.

Sorry for being a "Another newbie first time poster with a fake" Just wanted some honest opinions even though I was almost sure myself that the watch is a fake. I was just curious about what exactly gives it away as a fake, like the fact that the words "units" and "per" are not separated. I was hoping to learn something, not just ironic comments about a fake watch. Thanks anyway.

It is discouraged to discuss fakes and post photos of same. We are discouraged from identifying exact issues that identify a fake, as that gives fodder to the counterfeiters.

MANY MANY 1st time posters come here SPECIFICALLY to get their fakes discussed so they can see if they could pass one off in a sale, and to learn what to say or not say in a sales post.

NO intent to disgrace you or irritate you is or was intended. I apologize if it was taken that way (I am not always the most tactful person.)

Nothing personal was meant at all. It is just what happens here almost every day, posts of fakes. We all get tired of it, and people/posters can end up getting banned or removed for it.

WATCHOUT!!! offers a stated intent, but can cause issues when people use it, such as subject closures or poster being banned / removed.

Confusing for both new people and other members.
