    I’m not an expert, but as far as I know, the GP Ferrari watches all had 80xx reference numbers and had stick or Arabic numeral dials. There are some other parts that don’t look correct as well.

    Doesn’t seem promising then... unless anyone knows more.
    Thanks for the reply.

    It's fake.
    - The dials do not correspond to the pushers. What DO the pushers do on that watch?
    - GP of that era did not have crystal backs.
    - Your watch's back is press-on; GP backs use tiny screws.
    - The movement quality looks like stamped steel. GP movements are exquisitely made.
    - There is corrosion and oxidation everywhere; only cheap steel does that.

    I own a 1997 GP 8020. It has a 57-jewel automatic GP2280 calibre. Your watch is different than anything I've seen from GP of that era.

    That confirms it then beyond any doubts. Bummer. The pushers adjust the day dial and one doesn't seem to adjust anything.

    Thanks for the reply.
