Help! Is this genuine?

[Guest al12]

Hi guys,

My friend looking to purchase one. Does this look gen?

Thanks

[sneed12]

If I had to guess, I'd guess yes (high crown position implies gen, a few other details) but there's no way in hell I'd buy any watch with pictures that terrible.

Also if it's a gen, why does it have that datewheel?

Yes gen with service dial hands and bezel insert. Early 16610 and 16800/0 have this datewheel.
