So this is the best deal I’m able to find on a 16110 w/ papers, box, etc. Seller looks legit, even found their website outside of eBay. If I buy through PayPal with my Amex... contd

So, a few comments.
It does look legit to me.
Also, there is a replica of this watch out here that is insanely well done, and even the movement is replicated... so I am always a bit weary with 16610s

The thing though that looks really weird to me is that the dial appears to be luminova, while having tritium T<25 written on it.
I have read of similar cases on the rolex forum, but it is still weird.

All in all, it is a gorgeous watch that does look like the real thing. Importantly, it can be really impossible to tell apart a well done franken from the actual genuine watch.
If the seller is trustworthy and you were able to return it, I thing it could definitely be worth going for it.
If this is the real deal, it could be a really nice transitional model

I would recommend you doing some deep dive research on dial variations for the 16610 just to be sure it is not a service dial
I would not get one with a service dial, especially for full price

Happy to help!!

And then confirm authenticity locally upon arrival, would you have any reservations with this approach? I’ve compared this to prices at local ADs, Bobswatches, Jomashop, The Real Real

Also, please dont use Real Real as a reference!
From browsing it, the prices are pathetically high for watches in meh condition IMO.
I am pretty sure I saw a fake watch there as well last time a looked

No if you can get it authenticated then you should be fine but in all things in life if it’s too good to be true there is something underlying. Make sure to have the internal checked out
