Yes it does look a bit small, but that can sometimes happen depending on the camera angle.
It could also be a replacement aftermarket crystal. The dial, hands and bezel/pearl look ok for the vintage. The case sides look a little shallow, which is probably a camera issue too. It is very hard to see when the pics are not supersize. |

the case looks ok...the mag doesn' bother me that much...but the cyclops does look a bit crooked in the first shot...almost seems like there is more than one watch being photoghraphed...
May be all camera angle...or maybe, Steve, you've just made us all paranoid... |

trust me these con artists are after your money,so you have to be paranoid about every watch you dont buy from an AD! p.s.-if I was a scammer I would take it to a place like youbid(its an ebay drop off center)that way the seller has plenty of feedback and they(youbid) cannot check everything out that gets dropped off. |

I don't think Steven the cyclops issue is camera angle, should fill the area more vertically when magnified, and "aftermarket crystal" would make me real nervous w/o more info...R
