Please look at the 6, that should be straight not curved.

Box could be real but looks much older than the style sold with the SO.

Looks ok to me.
The box is real.

I think there has been at least two different styles of bezel numerals on this model, as the above pictures illustrate - one with square external corners and an earlier version of with radiusing on the external corners. Unlike the fake, I think both versions have squared internal conrers though. I look for radiusing inside the 6 and 0 digits as a telltale for the fake.

Very good - thanks for this information, I did not know about looking at inside the 6 and 0, very good info.

Yep, been discussed before when we had one of these. Looks fine to me.
