2201.51 for sale. The date looks like it is shifted a little to close to center…. Any opinions? It’s a 2201.51 42mm. I love it but don’t want to get had.. looking to trade a 2538.20.00 for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Looks like a legit earlier one.

Bezel and lume dot correct, faded seconds hand as expected, blue external AR coating.

Thank you for your input! Totally appreciated! Any opinion on the date wheel being what looks like too close to center?

This photo was pulled off of YouTube. Notice the proximity of the date wheel. One of these looks slightly off… am I mistaken? The YouTube photo looks closer to the outside of the dial where my original photo looks like it’s closer to the center of the dial.

Well, it's because it is the 45.5mm model, not the 42mm model.
2200.51.00 is the correct reference, and the picture you have shown in your original post is the 45.5

The chrono24 listing calls it a 2201 but the cards clearly read 2200. You’re right, it must be a 45.5mm. No where in the specs does it say the size. It must just be a chrono24 mistake in the listing. I have a 7.25” wrist and wouldn’t mind. 45.5 mm watch. I already have a Panerai 00560 that’s a 44mm and I love it! I’m going to go for the 2200! I hope the trade goes through.

Any suggestions on how to trade without getting taken???

I’ve never used chrono24.
Good luck!!
