Can I borrow your trained eyes?

I just bought a Sea Dweller online and wondered if any of you would look it over and let me know if you see anything that raises your eyebrows. It looks authentic to me, the seller's feedback is flawless, and the price was right.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=110190928770

Hopefully your keen eyes will show it to be so I am not trying to get a refund.

Also, what's the deal with open warranty papers? I've heard you can go to an AD and register the watch by just saying it was a gift - true or fairytale?

Thanks in advance

Roger

Hopefully he didn't get the open papers from that other guy on ebay.

Thanks guys! I felt pretty sure it looked authentic after reading posts here and on the web about what to look for in fakes, plus the seller's rep is flawless so far.

Can anyone answer the question on open papers in the original post?

Some AD's have a 30 day return policy. So if you decide to return the watch they can sell it as new again. I don't see why they wouldn't leave the papers open if you were someone they knew and were buying it for a gift for a spouse or family member.

Some will leave them open just because. When I bought my Sub BNIB, the papers were left open. When I bought a white dialed Daytona, they filled them in when I decided not to return it whithin the 30 day period.
