Gillette Reflex 305

[Lillegutt]

Is this 305 really original as stated? It looks to me as if the glass has been replaced. Looks like the crystal is thicker than it should be?

Comparing to this one, and the one in my drawer...

The watch looks original, but I am guessing you are thrown off by the gap at the top left of the crystal. Pictures would have benefited from the crystal being popped out, cleaned/polished and glued back in with a full line of clear cement. I think a fat line of clean glue beats a skinny groove of dirt, particularly under magnification.

The seller's a nice enough chap....maybe someone mentions it too him and he decides to touch it up.
