How do you spot a fake 5712 through the case back?I get your point
I'll help you save money: plates are useless, you'll never fool yourself if you look through the case back of a fake Patek....
But fair enough to say that Factories have reach an incredible level nowadays and seen from the face with the right investments, once the right mods are done, dial swapped for a proper one ,case re brushed and bezel polished properly...the watch shines and reveals the excellent base PPf is offering ....
The finish of the movement is not at the level of a Patek or any other 'haute Horlogerie" style, and of course with the std balance wheel there is the adjustment lever...
Easy, on top of the finishing there’s an easier tell: look for this case screw that doesn’t exist in any 5712 rep, even the 3k+ VSV movement.

Indeed, but achievable if you have a good polisher and accept to live without looking through he case back ...
