...SPOT ON Orchi...
...the knurled teeth are obvious in the pic's, and YES, the seller should state this in the listing. However, this in and of itself, does not justify reporting.
...good catch on the band. The potential buyer would think they are getting a 100% genuine Rollie. This JUSTIFIES reporting.  Stan.

The damage to the caseback is clear enough from it's depiction in the photograph.
Why is the clasp fake?

I think Rolex has never stamped a crown to the right of that 62510H stamp. I may be wrong though. Other experts should chime in.

This kind of FAKE clasps have been around for ages...no thanks to the imitation racket from Taiwan... 1. On closer inspection...you would see that the REAL Rolex famed calligraphy differ from this one... 2. The existence of additional 'Coronet' on the clasp is a dead giveaway...

O.K. thanks for that Orchi.
 My eye is not as well trained as yours.
