Looks like a nice Mark 2 Paul, but there may be some chips on the hash marks (25, 35, 55), hard to be certain from this pic. Is it a thin case?

Better pics would help.

Hmmm ... Looks as if there's no tritium on the hour markers. Looks completely flat (and white.) Better photos would help.

Get a very very clear macro shot of the red lettering.

What's the SN?
Does the caseback match the SN?

Expect chips on a mk2.

Neither of my Mk2's nor Mk1 had any chips. So yes many have but I would buy one without personally and have done just that. So if patient the perfect watch for us is out there.

I received more scans and yes there are lots of chips on the minute markers. So another unsuitable example
