At best, aftermarket case back. Can’t see well on my phone but crown also looks small. All signs point to fake

Let's be honest.
If you can't tell, then you need to be shopping only from a trusted source. |

Based on those pictures, this watch is a replica and not authentic.

Dude.
The pics are crap but even a blind man can see the "See through" caseback and that is a NO. Fake as all get out.

And as a TIP. Don't upload photos directly to TRF, you can't re-size or zoom in on them.
Upload them to a Photo host, and POST the photo link in between IMG /IMG brackets.... [XXX]PICTURE.LINK[/XXX] (Where XXX = IMG) and you put the IMG link inbetween.... For instance: https://clickpix.org/images/Zx8TAv.jpg is the Image Link. [XXX]https://clickpix.org/images/Zx8TAv.jpg[/XXX] Now I will change the XXX to IMG::: [IMG]https://clickpix.org/images/Zx8TAv.jpg[/XXX] (First Half) [XXX]https://clickpix.org/images/Zx8TAv.jpg[/IMG] (Last Half) Combined:

Also, based on the structure of the Automatic Winding weight, I'm guessing it's a Cheap DG2813 movement.. . . .
Here is a picture of one of these chinese movements: These are the cheapest of the cheap when it comes to craptastic chinese automatic movements.... a base Seiko NH35 is 10x the movement of this pile of junk.....

Hope you haven't paid, and additionally, please NEVER do a Wire Transfer to anyone except a well-known, established and well-respected brick and mortar business.
Number one scam for watches - wire transfers to 'unknown persons.'

It's a fake but the real question here is, what kind of a potato camera are you using?

First, incredible pictures. Second, they love it here when you refer to Rolex as “ Rollie”.

The real-ness of the watch is proportional to the resolution of the JPEG.
