Saw it. Looks perfectly fine and in good condition.

I'll just flag that the case should possibly have the sunburst finish (ref 2009?). hands aren't original or have been relumed (compare to black lume pips on the dial). Always though the dial design was a bit funky with the horizontal batons. Not sure in the logic of those!

Dave I defer to your far superior knowledge but think ref 2008? And hands look ok to me but I'm a novice...

Could be. OP should get some more pics. Hands are not wrong - just the lume does not match the dial lume, so they've been fiddled with.

Looking through the SOLD Top Time items on eBay will give you good guidance.
