good morning, I would like to have your opinion on this Rolex that they gave me, it is very old and ruined and I cannot understand if it is original or not. unfortunately I am not able to open the case back to see the movement inside, so I wanted to understand based on your experience whether it is gen or rep. thank you all in advance.

I'm curious who "they" are? The snot green lume dots were the first thing that caught my eye.

TBH, it's kinda cool. With the typo and all. (What a catch that typo BTW)
A rep with history.

Clean it up a bit and tell everyone it's your father's DJ from 1980. A heirloom.

all chromed or plated cases are reps

Not entirely my friend. Rolex did make some gold shell watches. Although those are quite easy to tell. The steel is showing on the bottom side of the case and the fold buckle should not be gold at all. If I remember correctly.
