I have my 2254.50 in hand, the picture at maximum size, and looking very hard I see the following differences:
The greek letter "Omega" is a tad closer to the 12 o'clock pip on my watch. Also the omega character is closer to a circle in its proportions than on mine which is a little taller than it is wide
The crown guard inner sides make about a 90 degree angle on mine versus a much larger angle on the presumed fake.
The Speedy Bracelet seems of different dimensions and proportions but can't be sure.
Per your comment, the helium valve looks a little stubbier.
Note that I got on the Omega site just to make sure that mine wasn't the fake !!
It is indeed awfully good looking to the casual observer
