Rolex Milgauss bamford question w/ PICS

I've always avoided pvd style (the black coating) watches as I worry about scuffling it and not being able to polish, also the green xtal is not the same as gen at all, it has a green ar coating whereas the gen is actually green crystal. The pictures you have provided look like a very cheap replica, the hands look poor in my opinion, I'd look for something else personally
Narikaa (reg) a trusted dealer has a Bamford sub for about £99 at the moment I'd take a look at that first! The honeycomb dial Is a beaut! I know its a sub and not a milgy but its nice!

Have you seen the actual watch, or just these pics? It looks like the hour markers could be stickers, hence the lack of lume. Anyway, the millgaus has a lightning shaped, red seconds. I would urge you to do a bit more research before buying. Compare https://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/292080-Rolex-Milgauss-white-21J-(EU)
Its a Bamford watch he is referring to I assume, I don't think the lightning bolt seconds hand is red (I thought it was orange anyway?) on the Bamford GV (green sapphire crystal) version like on the standard rolex versions

I believe this is the one?
Although it doesn't have green crystal, that model comes with green seconds hand I think
Another note,
Bamford dial is textured and the rep you have shown is nothing like gen, look at the outer markers they should be touching the rehaute, I'd avoid this on completely
