I think you have a nice one similar as well, but gold capped or filled?
I have a decent gold cap model and a very nice 355 in a crappy case, but with orginal crown and crystal. I'm hoping to save the crystal and swap the cases.

Other than the Christopher Nolan dramatic lighting this thing looks legit AF to me. Please do get some pics in natural light once it arrives of the dial font so we can verify originality but it's looking pretty good I think. A nice size and as said by others, not the most common date position, so a pretty cool piece! Enjoy it friend!

Ah that's wonderful news. And yes that lighting... haha. I'll post more naturally lit pictures when I receive watch.

I hope the OP can appreciate that buying a watch before knowing if it's genuine or fake, is a big no no.
Exactly, I always tell people, ask here first buy later, save yourself the broken heart and lost money.

Seriously, try to get pictures of the movement (y, before buying, preferably, already been said) that are clear enough to be able to see the numbers engraved on it - theyre important. Not just the long serial number (the watch's individual ID) but the short calibre number - the type of motor. This one is going to be 353 or 355, but a good seller's photos should already be telling you that.
Welcome, and enjoy.
