ok, thank you and sorry for double posting.
How can you tell is a fake? Couldn't it be like a real limited edition with the moonsphere downside? Because my grandpa was kind of a real rich important man so the probability of being fake is lower

It is 100% fake, and not a particularly good one. The obvious give away is the fact that it has chronograph pushers but no chronograph. There are numerous other issues as well.

Edit, Fred beat me to it.

People don't like to discuss fakes or obvious pointers because we are afraid 'fake watch makers' scour the forums for tips on how to make better ones.

I'm sorry but it's a fake.

Actually because 1) many of the people who come here know full well their watch is fake and want to see whether they can slide it through and 2) because it is against forum rules to discuss fakes beyond identification.
