Is this Tudor legit?

Dear all,

I am tracking a nice looking Tudor submariner for a while.
This 79090 popped up on the eBay now. I'm not an expert for this, but the bezel seems odd to me.

Any thoughts are welcome.

Best regards,

Charles

These questions belong in Watch Out!!! if you want more expert eyes on it - but the question is really about the insert, right?

It looks just like any other 79090 black insert - however a good replica insert would, too. As for the watch, buy the seller first. He has track record for past 5 years, sells watches and you're protected via PayPal. SO ask him the questions and bid if you get good answers...

Sorry posted it in the wrong place, and yes, the lume dot just too awkward.

I'd give it a miss, the ends don't have any wear from the bracelet, that is always a red flag for me. It has what seems to be a service sticker on the case back, however he doesn't mention any recent service.

Ask for a picture of the other inside, he can mask the serial number, but you need to look out for long e:s. The case looks like new and I would suspect that it is!
