Is that top right lug bent? Or is it just the photos or my 23 o'clock friday night eyes playing a trick.

 

It does look bent & twisted and also misshapen compared to the others. The lug holes are stretched.

 

Hi, is just the pic, yours 23 o'clock friday night eyes works well

What I was referring to is this angle, but I believe your IRL opinion better than me looking at pictures. Maybe you want to clear out any missconception by better front on pictues that shows that lug is not bent

 

Is this pic enough or do you need that I take others?

 

That is a side picture. He is requesting a Front pic showing the 12 o clock lugs face on. There clearly looks to be damage on the lug in the picture.

 

That lug definitely looks a bit damaged to me and bent (and maybe bent back again).

I'm not looking to trash your listing so sorry for that, just notifying something any potential buyer probably also would want to know. Something that is relevant info to put in when describing the watch, but you are the one having the watch in your hands so your judgement would probably be the more accurate and not ours just looking at pictures.

Good luck with the sale!

 

If we compare length of the lugs, right one is clearly "shorter" which implies lug being bent.

 

I understand , in the following pics I made a projection of the lines and it shows that one is not perfectly straight but it deviates slightly by lengthening the projection. I apologize

 

However all this does not detract from the beauty, originality and rarity of the watch
