Real.

But its a longer length strap than normal (which is probably what the L stands for on the reference number)

Normal deployant strap lengths are 90 and 110. This is 100 and 120. Because the strap is tapered on a deployant clasp you cant size it to fit below below a certain wrist size (maybe a member with a similar strap can be more specific?)

If you have average sized wrists you may want to double check this will fit you before you purchase as you cannot cut/modify the strap any smaller!
