6426: Case shape is interesting...

I'm looking at 6426's and other Oyster's and came across this one. Not necessarily considering it, but the price is cheap ($1.8K). One thing that stood out immediately is how thick the lugs are. They seem too wide and misshaped...and the case seems like it's in far too good of condition.

It looks abnormal compared to my 34mm cased Tudor Oyster and all other 6426's that I've seen.

Am I making sense or completely off?

I think the watch is fine. The issue may be the bracelet. Possibly a 17mm bracelet or the largest links to the case removed w/19mm ends..

Ahh, perhaps that's what the issue is
