Considering this DRSD from a trusted seller

Hello,
I've been on the hunt for "the right" DRSD at an appropriate price point. I've dealt with Gai in NYC a few times and I know he has a good reputation on here as well. So I put the call out to him to find me a DRSD.
I did not want a polished, look like new case (many of the DRSD's I've seen have been polished a lot with little of the crown guards left and the case has been thinned out).
I was really looking for a nice original piece. I believe this might be it. I'll be going to see it in person next week.
I know the picks are not very large. I've requested larger picks to take a look at in the meantime. For me, this is a tool watch that is meant to be worn for a reason and used. The patina and the condition of the case looks like it's been worn for this purpose.
Details are as follows:
3.5 million serial, fantastic dial with custard original patina and nice double red fonts.
The case is possibly unpolished and in its original worn conditions. The holes on sides of the case are full proportion.
The case back is stamped 1.72 correctly.
Comes on heavy oyster bracelet 93150 in fine conditions.
I'm not sure of the bracelet details yet.
LMK your thoughts.
