Of course not, I had someone attempt to sell it to me. I died laughing once the pictures came through.

I'm new to the business of Rolex and fascinated to learn how you guys spot these fakes so easily. Maybe you could help me learn here. Apart from the issue of the stainless steel v precious metal issue, should an engraved rehaut not also have a randomly generated serial number?

Stick around long enough and you'll see the differences between a poor made replica and a genuine one. A lot of people ask to tell them how to spot them but we have a bunch of stalkers that don't post that build these "super reps" and they stay reading these sections to hopefully get knowledge of how to build their reps better. That's why you'll barely get detailed responses. People like myself only spot out the obvious things like the cyclops not magnifying or a coronet that's abnormally big or whatnot...

Believe me, I'm not in the business of building a "Super Rep", I can barely put up a shelf. But I understand.
