路Hi everyone,
My name's Alex, and I'm fairly new to this whole watch collecting business/hobby. I've been trying to read up on different types of watches and learning how to do my due diligence, but when I read through this forum, it's clear that you all have much better wisdom, experience, and attention to detail.
Therefore, could you help me evaluate this listing?

As a newbie, my first goal was to figure out if it was authentic. I tried to match up all the details I could find on this watch model to the details listed and the poorly lit pictures. Everything seems like it fits. Anyone have any suspicious inputs? (I also contacted the seller for a flat picture of the watch because the angles make the top right corner very suspect)
I know that condition is also one of the main factors to a watches price, and this watch seems pretty worn and has a lot of dirt on it. Could you guys give an estimate of how much this watch is worth? Or if it would be worth buying at a certain price and cleaning up (or would that just deteriorate the value even more)?
Also, was my methodology correct? Any advice to help me on my next journey. Part of me just wants to stalk the Watches for Sale section and buy it from you guys due to the low risk of being cheated. 馃榿
Sorry for all the questions. I'm trying to learn about these watches 馃憥 and you don't have to answer every question. I tend to ramble...
Best Regards,
Alex
