I think you should go by Rolex Service Center in the city and have it regulated, that way you'll know for sure...

Please take photos of the clasp reference numbers and on the band and pop the band off take a photo between the lugs. Then we can tell you for sure.

Go to an AD with a watchmaker on site and have them look at the movement for you. They will also check between the lugs.

From photos, looks fine. Take it and get it authenticated if you have any doubts.

FIRST, buy the seller. Then buy the watch. If the seller is good, the watch will be good. I have bought over a dozen here. Never a problem. IMO, Brad is a good guy, been around here a while and only posts constructively. Not a seller, so no track record, but a collector who occasionally flips a watch. So, I'd not worry about the watch. Congratulations and enjoy!!

Looks good. Have a good look at the lume application on the markers and hands. If that is tight and clean you're good to go.
