vintage 1625 turnograph

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Role...item27fbc9b776

I plan to buy a vintage or modern turnograph after educating myself. This vintage 1625 turnograph seems OK to me (but I'm no expert) and the seller is cooperative (for example, he ran a 24-hour timing test and told me it was +6 seconds per day).

To me, it looks very, very similar to other 1625s for sale, except perhaps the coronet at the 12 position looks 'flat' (which may be typical for mid-60s Datejusts).

How does this watch look to TRF experts?

Thanks in advance.

All looks authentic , usa oval link band needs Michael young refurbishment, needs a new crystal, not likely recently serviced I would say factor all this in to the overall price

I know I'm VERY late to this game, but I have two of these and this appears entirely legit. Very nice - presentation and all. Sorry for being four years late.
