Can anyone give me any information about this watch, please? Do you think that it is real as I know there are lots of fakes around? The hand are gold and there are three pink diamonds in the back
Thank you
Hi welcome to CW :-)
As you suspected, fake!
See this old post with same watch, answer with links is there:

And... no pink diamonds in watches, those are synthetic rubies used for lowering pivots friction :-))
