Welcome @diegova88
It’s best to post as many pics as you have if you want a considered appraisal of a watch you’re looking at.
From the one, slightly blurry, pic the watch looks correct.
Decent dial but the lume is missing from the minute hand and cracked in the hour hand.
(The lume in the hour hand looks puffy and white - as though it is a later addition.
I can’t see any lume at the end of the indices but that may be the picture quality.
In saying that, a nice watch can be skilfully relumed.
However, what spoils this watch is the case - the bezel is quite soft and it looks as though the facets on the lugs have been polished away altogether.
Edit: it does look as though it has its original hidden crown (as you can’t see it in this picture.)
If you can post some additional pics it might be easier to tell.
If it is as it looks, then the price is probably double what it should be.
Hope that helps.
Thank you for the detailed information, I again learned some things I need to pay attention to!

It’s not so much about legitimacy- the last one was legit.
As @Porteroso says, it’s about condition.
Gold cap watches are always very slightly softer than SS but this one is really soft.
The bezel is almost rounded when it should have a sharp facet (it is solid gold, so no excuse not to be sharp)
The lugs are soft.
The gold medallion is almost non-existent.
The dial looks correct but is stained.
The case is badly pitted.
The crown is a replacement.
The movement has rotor rub.
How much are they asking for the watch ?(whatever it is, it’s probably -a lot- too much. )
Way too much… can I just ask, you talk about soft, what does that mean?
