Cyclops is off, metal seems sub par, and angle/curvature of watch seems too flat.

Just my two cents.. I could be completely off base, new here

Looks good, but if it's a "friend" you really shouldn't have to doubt...

Thats the first thing I noticed too. Could be that an aftermarket crystal was fitted?

Can your friend answer for this LEC?

With respect, I believe that it was established here that a visible LEC in a photograph doesn't necessarily indicate a fake. I think under certain conditions and lighting it is possible for it to be captured. I am FAIRLY certain that was the consensus, if I remember correctly. I agree with Mark-O. I think the watch looks okay.
