Advise to get more photos on the bracelet and the clasp, clasp hinges. The stamp on the clasp seems too big as well as the clasp hinges are not finished. Also, there is a bit of gap between the top left lug and bracelet.
Last, get the seller to show photo of the case serial number - RSC wrote $420.75 and the watchmaker receipt was $415.2
I know it's only little difference but I'm wary that $415.2 can't buy you that many parts and service - looks like crystal, hands, crown, tube. That alone would be like $150.

It's got 1 day 23 hours left and the bid is at $278.21. That is less than the complete overhaul in which he claims it has hardly been worn since. I think the band is showing a fair amount of stretch but the watch looks pretty decent in spite of that. I would wait until moments before the end and place your bid to the highest amount you'd be willing to pay and see if you get it. I think it would be a nice present for the little lady.
