Rolex Submariner 16610 Fake or Real?

Dear all,

Just recently got offered a Rolex Submariner Date 16610 without box and papers. I asked the seller before we meet to send me some pics. Since I have some doubdt regarding the glasp, I want to discuss this with you specialists.

Hope that you can/will share your thoughts about these pics of the serial numbers inside the case and the glasp codes. It''s an M serial 16610.

Thanks!

The engraving between the lugs is pretty bad.

1000% counterfeit. The engraving is not engraved between the lugs, but is lazer-etched like many counterfeits.

I would have to say Fake as well - the crown is sitting too far down on the case - I'd suspect an eta movement in there - plus the case looks a bit off - top lugs bigger than the lower ones - could be camera distortion, but something seems 'off'
