Ibi, it seems to have most of the right parts and pieces to be essentially original. However, you can tell from some of the not sharp edges and the scratches which have been polished over that it has been pretty well polished at some point. I can't tell for sure but the hands may have been re-lumed. The lume seems suspicious. That said, I am not the best judge of internet/eBay pictures. I tend to want to hold watches in my hand before buying. I will wait to see what others say.
