Yes, it looks fine. You can usually be confident that anyone selling a watch on one of the established watch forums is probably NOT going to try palming off a fake. It would be like trying to cash in a bogus $20 bill at the National Treasury!

Well, the watch does not appear to be the Full Size 40mm Version. it most probably is the midsize which is why the Font is bolder and thicker than what you may be used to seeing.
The listing does not say what size it is does it?

Yes, it does. It's clearly listed as a 16622.
