Friend inherited this Datejust. Is it real?

He says his grandad bought it at retirement. Never seen one quite like it with that dial and the bezel is a weird color. What reference would it be?

I think you'd have to open it up, to know for certain.

Where was it purchased?

Looks like a 16013 or 16233 Arabic dial, hard to authenticate with one photo.
