Help authenticating an eBay rolex

Hey guys, found this on eBay and is interested in buying. However, haven’t seen a datejust with a diamond dial and no lumes on the hands. I’ve seen some with the Roman dials with no lumes on the hands though. What are your thoughts?

Wow, that's a sad looking bracelet. Talk about limp.

Watch seems fine. From that period I think no lume hands was available. Bracelet is quite short at 6.5 inches.

Perfect seller rating with high volume.

What concerns you?
The hands don’t have lume, seems to be correct since there’s no lume on the dial either. But I wanted to get confirmations from you pros.

You're fast lol, I only glanced then went to the listing and then edited.

Non lumed with champagne diamonds seems ok. Lume always goes with lumed indexes. Current line up is that way and I believe it has always been so.

My thoughts are that the watch is worn out, whatever it is.

Pretty limp...kinda happens to us old farts.
Too bad there ain't a little blue pill to make that watch bracelet straighten up.
