Real or No
I know I will catch grief for this post but have spent many hours online, to the point where I don't even understand what is real or fake anymore, and how to know. For every reason it is fake I find another opinion on how it could be authentic. Bands are really tough for me, and I am not very familiar with day-date models. The biggest challenge is that I do not have access to the watch yet. If anyone is willing and able to educate me on how to spot authentic/fake and the why behind it, I am all ears. Thank you for your time, it is greatly appreciated as it saves me from a potentially long drive. I apologize for some of the pictures being fuzzy but it is all I have at the moment. Thanks again.

Agree with the guy above. It’s a blatant fake. Oozes cheap knockoff! Don’t take that drive!
