Fake. The inside case back spelling wrong.

It looks legit to me!Just the serial number is missing or maybe the seller deleted it on the photo.

I think it's legit, just a bad stamp. However, the dial is refinished IMO. The font is too modern for the movement serial and the sub-dial markers are misaligned.

Legit, just a bad day for the guy making the stamp.
As Dan said, dial has been redone.

Perhaps the case back is the only fake part.

Good news, it must of been changed at some point over the years. I doubt they come out of the factory with the wrong spelling.
