5508 in the bay
The case looks a bit "too fresh"?!
What does the professionals think about that piece? https://www.ebay.com/itm/19529466663...Bk9SR8TC9J_WYA |

I won’t say I’m an expert on this reference at all but the listing does mention the dial is refinished and I would agree.
Case and movement doesn’t bother me as much as the dial, hands and bezel do. Movement parts watch, or I don’t care so I will wear the crap out of it watch, at best.
