Wild Caseback

I've made an offer on a stunning red sub, but there is one quirk - the inside of the case back appears to have been damaged somehow. I can't tell if this is extensive pitting, or (maybe more likely), some kind of grinding something touched it. The sub is otherwise pretty immaculate. Just wonder if anyone has any thoughts on this? I assume it's not a major cause for concern or issue to avoid, since it is not a visible defect, but welcome your thoughts.

BTW, seller stated he was not sure what happened with the caseback, but it's good with the 1680 reference, and dated - he cannot see the exact year but can read II.6?. This is a 2.2m Mark II, meters first sub.

The sub comes on a 7206 riveted bracelet with 82 end links and a 4/69 clasp. I believe the seller is reputable and trust that everything is legit, but thought I'd also ask opinions/verifications on the bracelet, end links, and clasp as well.

Thanks!
