Is this 15000 Case gen?

[Julian13]

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to the forums and only do reading for the most part (lots of learning). I recently acquired this case from a Rolex watchmaker. I am doubting its legitimacy due to it being in good condition but I would like to know your thoughts.

I'm no expert bud but the case back engraving looks a little strong, you're probably better posting the engraving between the lugs. Only people I've seen do those anywhere near gen are phong, neckzips and jmb.

99% gen. I am not aware of any rep 15000 case. They are cheap enough that I don't think anyone bothers.

I thought about this haha. I just wanted to make sure because the lugs were so sharp and the engravings looked pretty clean to other cases I’ve seen selling for $300+. Meanwhile I got this plus a gen blue dial for $300.
