I for my part wouldn't touch it.

The GMT is stated to be an X65XXXX SER #.

The X-series is from 1991.

But the dial shows a SuperLuminova dial, not a Tritium was like it should be since Tritium was banned in 1998.

So at least the dial has been exchanged, and probably the hands, too.

I'm confused. You claim the seller agreed to withdraw the auction and yet it's been won.
