Pics like this are usually very intentional

Pictures are bad. That is not a good sign. I would walk away from this deal.

I wouldn't buy a watch where getting clear photos was like pulling teeth. When pics are this bad, there's something that's being hidden. Whether it's authenticity, damage, replacement parts, whatever.

Pass and find another one.

Forget it. Buy a real watch from a real seller.
