Like most good fakes, looks good at a distance! I've got a real one, would be interested to compare.
The big differences that I can make out from a cursory glance are the non solid end links and case back finish.
Different ref from yours and I’ve spotted a couple more differences, but I’m not going to post them. Absolutely no need to educate fakers as to how to improve the quality of their work.
Honestly I feel sick when I look at this sort of stuff.
