Thinking about buying this GMT. Buying from an online dealer. I asked to see the movement and open the watch up but apparently it’s a hsssle? Is this an unreasonable ask? Does this watch look ok?

Giant red flag if someone won’t open the back… Run, Forrest, run!
My bro in law bought a 1973 GMT II Pepsi, and both ADs near us refused (or were not allowed) to open the caseback. I ended up just going to a watchmaker to just open the back to see the movement quality and performance. I don’t think this is unusual, however you must know your seller.
Would you buy a car if the dealer didn’t let you pop the hood and see the engine?
EXACTLY!
Me at the dealership, after asking the dealer to pop open the hood and show me the engine:
"yep, that’s an engine. "
