It is more beautiful than the picture in person. It is 100% real/authentic (although the photo on the main page shows otherwise). It came with a real box (box not shown) and a real "cushion" (cushion not shown). I learned the differences between fakes and original MK. Even though it's a WHITE (and rose gold) watch, I plan on wearing it all year round. It's too pretty to only wear in spring and summer.
