So guys what do you think? To good to be true? Case looks a little odd and the pushers too small....
What say you all?

It is real but has a few issues. Case shows signs of brassing, candidate for replating. Heavily worn crown that could be replaced, not easy to find this style of signed crown but possible.
A survivor piece with 7 days left in the auction, it will NOT end low. 810's are becoming increasingly difficult to find. You will see one 810 to every 25-30 806's today, maybe even higher ratio.

most probably an old replate, the color is off, much too rosé.
but all basically correct, Gen. 1 case w/ Gend. 2 dial. and hands.

much nicer pieces out there.

Thanks for your thoughts guys, I don't have acces to my "Richter" right now so wasn't too sure. Esp with the slightly off colour, and the early case.... Might still watch it though.
