I'm no expert so I'll let others comment on authenticity of case, etc. From what I can see it has a service dial (should be gilt), is missing the whole bezel/insert assembly and the plexi is cracked.

Legit I think but in need of a lot of TLC and some expensive parts

I asked them to unscrew the caseback and send me a picture of the movement. They didn't want to do it.... i'll pass on this one.

No bezel or insert, service dial and likely hands... I heard it was a 6536 rather than a 5508

Wow! Bidding up to $5650 USD! I wonder if those are legitimate bids?
