Compare it to this one from a trusted source. What differences do you see?

It looks to have a polish from before but the bigger matter is the bottom endlink has been stretched and not fitting properly.

And one more for good measure from yet another very trusted source.

Looks OK from here. Case has been polished, but still relatively strong. As mentioned the 6 o'clock bracelet end-piece look off in the last few pics. However, it looks fine in the first ones.
So, I am guessing the seller removed the bracelet for photos and just didn't fully-seat the spring-bar when reattaching it. ![]() |

I am a beginner....but in the first pic do the crown guards appear horribly over-polished?
Is there concern about authenticity with this example or just condition? Edit: the photos sure make the original watch appear harsh compared to the examples from trusted sellers. Too much flash? |
