I think it's a Rolex but I can't tell if it's fake or not

Another pic

You must be blind, it clearly says Westclox, not Rolex.

Oh man...he got ripped off. He's gonna be pissed

Wait, before you go jumping the gun and tell him it's fake. On real Rolex's the second hand jumps from second to second, fake one's rotate around the face smoothly. So first check it out before you give him the news...

A Rolex mechanical will sweep smoothly. Rolex did (does?) make a quartz flavor of their DateJust, called an "OysterQuartz."

They're a little harder to find, but they're out there.

DateJust is a nice watch, very comfortable ... even though it has a bracelet instead of a strap.

I've been wearing a Blancpain Flyback lately ... it's also a very comfortable watch.

FWIW
