Looks fine.

It's been refinished/polished and has a bit of stretch, but it is genuine.

Great glove photos!!! I don't understand these sellers fixated on trying to sell a watch or part with all these hand photos. Get rid of the hands and/or the gloves - it does nothing to highlight the part that you are trying to sell.

Based on the ebay listing, the seller seems to be a member here on TRF.

As far as the bracelet being genuine, it appears that it is but I can't be 100% based on the photos. I did observe the end links are numbered for a Datejust or similar model with 1.8mm spring bars.

I do have to laugh a bit at the "white glove" treatment. It's not like we are dealing with extremely fragile/priceless artifacts here. I guess it's to convey some higher level of "care" being given to the item for sale, but it's a bit much, IMO...

Yep, looks like 558b end pieces, which would be a legitimate configuration (Datejust, Explorer, etc.). I suppose it depends on what watch the OP is looking to put it on.
