90s Tudor sub - buyers advice help!

Hi all, I have a question about a 1992 Tudor sub which I am considering. I'm a little apprehensive given the cost of these watches these days, so just wanted to avoid any obvious mistakes. The price is fair and the seller is a retail store with a good reputation. There are no red flags, but I've read these are often targets for fakes which can fool even the best of us... Is there anything worrying about this piece? observations are most welcome!!

Poor pictures but nothing looks concerning.

Terrible photos - probably legit.

I have higher resolution photos but they exceed the upload limit, hence the compression. Thanks for the feedback.

You see less fakes of this generation but they're definitely still out there. I recently bought a 90's Tudor sub and poured over a ton of listing photos and this one looks like it has all the correct visible stuff.

Thanks Rwc1313! It gives me some reassurance! I'll post an update once I pull the trigger.

Looks legit but try to download an app called Resizer. You can adj the sizes of the photos and post them in a snap. Looks like it has a nice 9315. Post the photos… there are tons of fake 9315s out there. Someone just posted one today. That’s a 1,000$ bracelet you may be paying for.
