    Hard to tel about the case and how much work if any was done to it but overall to my no trained eyes it looks rather good. Needs a new seal around the crystal and a new crystal but that is reasonable price wise and prob a service as well. The lume seems consistently aged accros the hands and dial too which is nice .
    Here is mine for reference

    Looks genuine to me. Original dial and hands, but hard to tell about the case condition from the photos. The sunburst finish can be a scratch magnet, and poor refinishing is sometimes a problem. Crystal is mineral glass not hesalite, so if it’s scratched it needs to be replaced not
    Polywatched.

    Somewhat unusual bracelet - most come with the 1162. This one looks really good!

    Um, that is a put together watch. The movement and dial are for a 176.009 cal. 1040, and the caseback and mid case are for the cal. 1045 176.0015....
