Edit : I thought this a fake, but am told that some Precisions do have tuners and truss rod nuts that look like that.

I might be missing something ,but what’s not right

It's clearly neither a Fender nor a Precision

Well... to my eye it's definitely a Precision, no doubt there. I'd also say it's a perfectly legit Mexican Fender too. Really can't see anything wrong with it! Please, enlighten me as to you quarrel with this!

Same here, 2003 standard Mexican P bass with missing strap button

The clear issue here is that @bremen is in fact a time traveller as they appeared to have joined basschat one year before they were born...

I defer to Messrs Binky and Reggae. 

 

I'd never seen a Precision with the truss rod nut at that end, and the capstans look wrong. Finish is cheap looking too. Apologies.

As far as I know all the MIM precisions have the truss at the headstock, and all Of my US ones have and do adjust at the heel, I think maybe the early Highway 1 might be the exception

I’m always doing that 😁

It doesn't look quite right to me, but then the camera shots are like they were done in a hall of mirrors.

 

That said, this is one of my MIM Precision's headstock.
