Is it just me or is the lug at 5 o'clock position significantly short or has been overpolished? Or is it just the angle of the photo?

I think that the end link is a little cocked and throws perspective off.

It is an older watch, but not too abused.

Probably a worn pin

Agree that it overall looks nice. Your pin comment may be accurate and looks a little bent in this picture. Lug just seems really short.

Pins bent. Somethings jacked. Buy a different watch.

It appears you are correct. Looking closely at this one though that pin may account for why the lug "looks" short.

Are you referring to the end link being displaced?

This is what Tools posited in #3.

Looks like both the pin on first bracelet link that connects to the endlink is bent. As well as spring bar is bent causing the endlink to appear skewed from the lugs/case. Like you said, i am inclined to pass unless they come off the price a bit and or repair. Spring bar shouldnt cost much and likely fixes the 2nd issue. Pin in bracelet link, may be more (not sure how much that would cost though).

Common watch. I wouldn’t do too many backflips to get into it.
