HELP identification

Hi all,

Apologies for thrusting myself at your collective knowledge. A lady friend of mine has recently been given the pictured watch. My casual searching has yielded no info whatsoever. Can anyone tell me anything about it!

Thank you in advance.

I'm going to have to say no good.....it says Oyster on the face, however it's not an Oyster case.

Either way, nice looking watch.

I love the fleur de lis hands.

Dial/hands look interesting---not an expert on these... not sure about case

The early Rolexes had Oyster written on them:



Looks legit to me (the dial looks original), but I can't help more than that... Hopefully someone else who knows more can help!
