Price should be 18-22... also, this has been discontinued. So “grey market” or “second hand market” is the only place to purchase them...

They look fine, but I’d suggest you do a collage and compare.

Price seems cheap to me on a bracelet. I would get more detailed pics of the case as well as the movement and inside the case back. Also, request pics of the engravings between the lugs.
Does the bracelet clasp code match the serial number year?
If I was spending this much, I would want some major detail. The pics provided only scratch the surface.

From the photos it looks good, but those photos are quite grainy to properly judge condition of bezel and lugs.

No, I don't think it does look like a service dial as it has T Swiss T along the bottom of the dial.

turns out it's an early service dial as disclosed by the shop manager. Hence the lower than normal price.

Sadly I had to pass.
