Many thanks to both of you.
I found a store yesterday which looked good from the outside, but when I looked at a few more reviews on forums and google it painted a different picture. 4.5/5 star dealer on Chrono24. Aftermarket parts in several movements, aftermarket deployant, condition was worse than described and this wasn't just 1 review/watch.

And when I read the google reviews a couple of positive reviews used the exact same phrase (and spelling mistake) so it was obvious what they were doing. You're better off buying local and seeing the watch yourself.
