Lugs are fine. For me, what matters is that the watch is as original as possible and looks GOOD. I just wanted to make sure that my impression of what is and is not original, as posted in the first couple lines, was correct, that's why I posted. Thanks for confirming that.
On this very forum there are sellers trying to get six figures for four digit Cosmographs that look beat up in some way, scratched up dial, dingy dials, scratched up bezel, etc. Those sorts of things are show stoppers for me. I'd rather not wear a beat up looking watch, at any price.
The dial is fine too.
The price is right, it's lower than any other (including the beat up) 6263s around right now, and the owner has had it in the family since the beginning, so its provenance is hard to match, especially at the price I am paying. What I am paying is not a steal, but fair.
True, I paid about nothing relatively speaking for my other 6263 (white dial), which is all original and very clean looking too, but that was almost twenty years ago. I also have a 6265 from around that same time. My second 6265 I got more recently than that, but also like my other 6263 immaculate looking - clean, whew-wee, so clean!
Love those four digits! (In this instance, Low Digit - is a good! thing.)
And I have an almost immaculate 6239 (from 196_) that I did literally pay close to nothing for. I can't even wear that one without having people who know (but don't know me) trying to buy it off my wrist.
