When the printing looks sketchy, I always look at the dots over 140 and 150 these days.

The bezel IS in mint condition BTW ... just totally fake.

The 'aging' on that looks so unnatural as to be ridiculous

I suppose it was only a matter of time that fake DON bezels should come to market, given the insane premiums people are willing to spend for a tiny piece of aluminium! We brought this on ourselves!

Late to the party.

The font jumped out at me right away.

Here’s the comparison:

Top is the fake.

Font looks very odd to me (although the picture is poor).

What are your thoughts on it?
Not only the font. Look at the position of the dot above the 130. That is one of the most obvious tells.

No probs.

We'll fix that on the next print/production run.
