I think it`s a fake because the lunette and the second hand are wrong, and the date window too and so on ..........

Genuine Military Colt Quartz. Maybe with a later style bezel is my guess.

:real:

The Colt 80180 (as on the paperwork) is listed in the 1989 catalogue.

The case back markings have been accepted on here as being genuine for a military Colt of this era.

Presumably a transition piece.
