1601 Authenticity check please

Hi everyone I was wondering if any of you could chime in on this 1601 for me. I'm thinking about buying it but just wanted to make sure it was good before I did. I know the pictures arnt the best but I would appreciate any help you guys could lend me. The dial looks good to me but I welcome second opinions. Again i know the pictures they posted are a bit blurry but can anyone chime in on the case, bezel, hands, and the band? Any help I could get would be greatly appeciated.
Thanks Shane

hard to say, pics are not the best, linen dial an original design, the lume plots in one photo look too white, maybe relume or could be lighting they usually have patina, case looks fine, bezel is really over polished has no sharp edges left and could do with replacing, can you show the clasp engravings on the band and band reference number on the last link ? hour hand looks replaced. it just depends on the price ? needs some work

Thank you so much for the info crown I really appreciate it. Unfortunately these are the only photos he posted. With everything you mentioned I probably won't be purchasing this one, it's a little more work then I want to put into it for the price. Again thank you so much for your help, it means a lot to me. Have a great night and a great holiday crown,
Shane
