Thoughts on this Daytona

A guy is trying to sell a gold Daytona on kijiji. He says he is
willing to meet at a jeweller to verify authenticity. Thing is he lives 3 hours away and I'm not convinced yet that it's worth the drive. Here is a pic, what are your thoughts? Real/fake?

a 3 hr drives requires 20 images of all main features. if they go silent after asking for the images, you got your answer.

You can tell nothing from that photo!
Nor would I drive 3 hours based on that alone

Obvious fake, just look at the distance between the subdials...
This is a fake with probably Chinese-made copy of ETA 7750, with constant seconds moved to 6 o'clock and with functional chronograph. Of course, pass!
