Cursory Verification Please

Hello all,

Potential first time buyer of a pre-owned sub. Given the pictures, can anyone on the forum verify that the watch is authentic? I already saw the serial number with the band removed. Thank you in advance!

Pictures look OK watch from around 2000/2003 P/Y/F serial always buy the seller first then the watch.

I believe it's P serial which puts it at 2000. Re: the seller, I'm not keen on their rep as I'm currently overseas (UK). Thanks for the initial relief.

I think you could do better from a trusted seller on TRF.
