Looks legit to my rookie eyes but I'm curious of your opinion on that watch.

looks legit to me too, not the bridge logo I would expect, but this is a minor issue.

Thanks for you reply. How about crystal? It is very domed and it distorts numbers on outer slide rule. Shouldn't it be more like navitimer style?

yes, needs a Sternkreuz M dial, but this is not considered a flaw. before you worry about this, I would have it cleaned and serviced.

Could use a better crown as well, but again minor.
