At first glance the hands are not original to this watch and are replacements. I am on a phone and the pictures are to small to see much more than that at this time, I will open them later on a real computer.

The watch certainly has a few issues but none that give me 100% cause to have it removed.

It has just sold for $22k. If anyone has some concrete info pls let me know, it can still be invalidated.

Maybe a frankenwatch? Hands replaced, bezel insert wrong and endlinks are 580 instead of 585. I would stay clear.
