The bezel numbers are supposed to be filled in black on this model. The black fill may have been removed at some point. Other than that I think it looks good, but I am not sure...

Yes I've seen many when looking to buy one that were chipping/rubbed off, this has been polished so I'd imagine they where all removed to give it a cleaner unworn look.

If you mean the bracelet from the eBay listing, it's fine. If it's a different strap post pictures and we can be more helpful.

Scrap that, found one "S0101" on the inside of he strap middle link one link down from the watch itself, almost looks etched/laser on quite faint probably due to polishing.
