JLC Reverse duo GENUINE or FAKE?

Hi all.
Im negotiating a JLC Reverse duo its announced for a very cheap price ( around 4.3k usd). I offered 3K usd and I think he will accept .
He sent me a video of the watch. Could you guys tell me If its genuine? Is the movement like that when he pushed the button?

Thank you all
Ricardo

Here are some pics of the watch :
The model number shows 272.8.51 on the pic but the guy is saying its 8.54. Is it correct? Is there any variation of that? Is it 100% genuine or can be a replica AAA with different machine?
Thank you all!

Do you guys think its a good deal trading it for my 116200 blue roman dial ,complete set? Just to let you know again the JLC has no box and papers. Only the watch.

Impossible to tell from that video.

I’d stay away especially that it doesn’t come with box/papers.

Also depends how well you know the seller.

I don’t know the owner. He said he bought it in 2014 at Frankfurt airport but left box and paper behind because he was afraid of being charged by customs.

The owner seems to be a good guy. He said we could go to a JLC shop to verify the authenticity.

Do some research as the Reverso is really well faked, don't know about this model, but a low price and no box papers is always a worry.

That to my eye, as a Duo owner, looks legit. It should be easy enough for an AD to crack the case and look at the movement which would be the giveaway. I would still be irritated by not having the box and papers though! Just as an aside earlier Duo's (and more recent ones) do not have push piece protruding from the case - you have to use the official pin or a paperclip to change the hour on the back dial.

It looks real to me but, then again, I've never seen a fake Reverso.
