I don't have a shot but to my knowledge the above pieces have 27 to 28 jewels. This one that I almost bought has 17 jewels only at least on the rotor. Is this normal or somebody replaced the rotor? Thanks community.

He did and he made a very rational explanation. It must be a US release/issue piece. All marks and what not are present.

The seller wants $450 paypal or $400 cash. Bracelet seems to be original (marked Certina 6300 whatever that means). Issue with bracelet is that it is still long for my wrist despite maximum hole adjustment and no pins to remove-so uneven. Guidance. Watch is better in person as all flaws are being magnified in pics.

$400 would buy an excellent one of these in my neck of the woods, the dial damage on this one - it's not on the crystal, right - would be unacceptable to me.

It'a nice watch but IMO price is like 2x what I would consider given the dial condition.

Exactly. Still learning. I thought the damage on the dial were on the crystal . Thanks !!!
