legit or not - datejust

I found this datejust for sale. reference is 16234, caliber 3135, from 2001 (bracelet 78360). This is all the information I have for now(I do not have the serial). I'm not that familiar with Rolexes, can you spot any problems with it? thanks

I'm not a fan of the polishing and how the lugs are looking.

Plus there is a lot of stretch on this oyster bracelet, even though it's only 20 years old. I would pass.

what seems off about the lugs? Is the edge that looks too "smooth"? and you feel like it is caused by overpolishing or that it could actually be fake

The watch looks legit but I'd rather have others chime in.

The case definitely looks softer, a bit rounder which could make the lugs look longer which to me is the case. Looking at the bottom right lug for example.

thanks. Here's a picture from a slightly different angle if it helps.
