Looks good but images are kind of small to really tell.

Agree, you should ask seller to provide some closeups of front and back.

:welcome:

Without wishing to appear rude, you would be mad to purchase the watch with those pics alone. The watch may be genuine but it's too much of a risk. There are very good replicas of this model made and without close up pics of the dial and s/n on the watch, COSC and warranty book, you should not consider buying it.

If you get these pics, post them here for feedback.

Other than lume dots being like pimples rather than flat (and often slightly off centre), they are all but perfect.

I would still want to see macro shots of the s/n on the watch and matching COSC and warranty book but my guess from these pics is that it's gen.

Looks ok to me also, but I wouldn't buy it without proper dial shot.
