Seeking your opinion on this DJ
Hello,
Please help to figure out if the watch is real or not, also what year it is. The model number is 955XXXX, it has a small crack on the bottom of glass just dont pay attention on it, also if its real is it 14K gold or 18K, thanks |

He gave you a serial number not a model number. It looks like a 16013... Just can't tell. Acrylic crystal correct?

16013 model was produced from 1977-1988. Show us the clasp in a photo as rolex made 14k and 18k in this model. Dies the clasp have h14 or h18 engraved after the band number

The spacing and font looks off, but difficult to tell given the quality of the pictures.

Looks good enough with what we can see . Acrylic that's for sure given the type of damage .

I would say it looks to be real, but it's not a 1950's watch. Late seventies as mentioned.
I think these were 14K gold.

Took it to service today, watch is 100% real, as it was correctly mentioned its 14K 1970s, to clean, polish and to install sapphire crystal glass guy will charge me 200$, have bought the watch for 1500$, so still think it wasnt bad deal. Thanks everybody for comments

Got the watch back today, thats how it looks now, watch and band appear to be real 14k gold, the clasp most likely was replaced thats why band number stands for stainless steel, still unsure what exact year it is but its all right, thanks for every post they all were really helpful, plus i got my security protecting the watch (see picture)
