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?

    I kinda disagree though if I’m selling a watch (and I have sold a Rolex before) I don’t have the tools, clean area or desire to risk anything compromising the water seal. If it’s a private seller with good feedback I guess I kind of see where they’re coming from. I’ve never been asked to do it fwiw you’d be entitled to a PayPal dispute or chargeback if it’s fake so you can evaluate for yourself, anyone can fake pictures tbh

      This is the only right answer. Nobody in their right mind would risk introducing particles to an expensive movement, especially dust and fine, hard particles that can cause irreversible damage to its parts. The only real red flag I see is the condition of that bezel insert.
