16610 – extra eyes required, please

[boothus]

Hello,

I'm new to this forum.
On my hunt for a 16610 I came across this watch located in Germany. I'm not fussed about the Bracelet not being original as I plan to wear it on a Nato (the dealer has made it very clear in the description that it's aftermarket) but having only ever handled two submariners, I'm struggling to tell if this looks overpolished or not.

I'm traveling to Berlin next week, so would be able to take a look in person but – to be honest – I'm not sure how much more I'd be able to tell vs. looking at the pictures provided.

Might be worth pointing out that another reason why I'm looking at this particular watch also is that it's a 1987, which is my year of birth.

I would post a link but unfortunately I can't since I've only just joined – 3 pictures attache though.

I know this isn't something easily judged from a few pictures but if anyone can spot any obvious signs of a poor polishing job or overpolishing I'd be keen to get your thoughts.


Many thanks,
Ben
