Cheers, much better

The datejust on the left looks all wrong from the font on the dial, The gold on the president bracelet looks like its wearing off on the edges, the date font looks wrong and the date magnification is off too, do you have any more info or pics.

The one on the right is a hard call, looks ok from that photo, looks like an older acrylic crystal and the date font looks maybe a little too bold. do you have any ref numbers or model/serials on these?

Cheers,

Dave.

As Dave said.....

The Rolex crown on the right dial also looks suspicious and the font is off.

Do you have more pics of caseback, bands, serial/model, mov't etc? That would help a lot.

The watch on the left is fake.

The minute and second hands are too short, the tritium markers are too far away from the sticks/plots, the dial printing is all wrong, spacing is out, 29 and 31 sec markers wrong etc.

Thanks everyone. Well the I figured the one on the left was fake. The one on the right, I don't have any numbers for it other than it's a model 1601. I saw a picture of the movement but it wasn't a great picture. It looks like a real movement buy the colors and color of the writing. The inside of the case back is stamped correctly and everything.
