Warranty card and technical kit !?
It's hard to judge the watch from those photos

Missing too many things, and seller with no real previous history. He sold a fish and a car part. Leave it!

Watch looks good from the pic above. But you never know... could have other issues. "Buy the seller" - as they say.

Good luck

Hard to tell from pics, but on the valve side it looks like it’s been polished a lot. You can pick one up for $9500 or so with papers. You can source the rest of it, but i would buy from a trusted vintage dealer. these are very easy to find.

Factory service mid case is the red flag for me. Prefer an all original example for a 5 digit SD.

Would be paying much less than that asking for a piece where the case was replaced / not original.

Always be weary of sellers with no history.

Very cool piece. I’m actually looking for one myself currently.
