The face looks too clean, not matching the condition of the hands

WHOA. That caseback polish just gave me room-spin, and no, I’m not drunk.

I read that caliber 562 is one of the best movement, just not sure if that is a fact.

Look at the back. Any more polishing and you wont be able to unscrew it using the proper tool.

The movement seems okay though. Not much damage on the screws etc. Or am I missing something obvious here?

Lets not forget to look at how mangled the back of the lugs are and the ungodly bad pitting on the case back.

Is the dial / hand combination correct in your eyes?
