Is this rolex real
HI,

I have this Rolex that was passed down to me, and it was given as a gift to my parents before, like 20 years ago or more. however, I don't know if my watch is real.

Don;t mind the magnifying bubble not being centered is the angle of where i took the picture.

Sorry for the dirtiness of it, it has been hidden in a shed for so long.

Pretty much everything.

This watch only resembles a Rolex, it is not a good counterfeit at all, so most who are familiar with the brand would see that right away.

Also the "Rolex Rolex Rolex" inside the bezel wasn't there "like 20 years ago or more" on the model that this counterfeit purports to be.
