A bezel in such good condition always triggers alarm bells for me. Do you have better, non "artsy" pictures? It's hard to tell much with with cropping, dim lighting, and odd angles.
I don't think I've seen a sweep hand like that one.
The bezel is raising alarm bells for me. The case has been polished a few times, the dial has seen moisture (lume is the canary in the coal mine) so the wear & tear on the watch doesn’t line up with the near pristine bezel.
I’ve seen at least 3 variations on second hands for these, as well as two examples with speedy hands - which we can only speculate were probably factory service hands during an OOS period of the correct hands- so this one doesn’t surprise me.
I have no doubt the watch it legit, but the bezel.... It has an “aged” lume pearl which the fake bezels don’t to my recollection, but that wouldn’t be hard to replace (there are fake aged lume pearls). If the watch were cheap enough and you didn’t care about the potential originality of the bezel, and you find the dial attractive then go for it- but proceed under the assumption that it’s a bezel-less watch which dramatically decreases the value.
And you will NOT find a factory correct bezel for this if this one is indeed aftermarket- so don’t buy it thinking you can track down another bezel.
