From where I'm sitting it looks alright, but couldn't tell you either way without handling it and feeling the winding mechanism, jumping hour hand movement etc

You need to establish first that these are the actual pics of the watch that is being sold. Ask for a picture with their username or some sort of message written on a piece of paper next to the watch. Often, they just steal the images from a legitimate seller, have you post the images and gain trust that it is a real watch, request a wire transfer only, then disappear forever with your money.

The asking price alone is already a red flag. Be careful.

Cheap enough to make me question the price.

Dial photo is not good enough to 100% authenticate, but "appears" correct

Yes really... to good of a deal....I would ask much better pictures and confirmation this was his watch.... And a video of the jumping hand...The watch looks real but... The problem is.... i have seen Franken watches look that good... and now they have Asian movements with the right hand stack and jumping GMT hand....so be very careful out there😊
