The bezel is aftermarket, but the seller and watch seem to be OK!
 Would like to see better pics when it arrives...Congratulations!

The bezel and dial are both likely aftermarket but appear to have much larger diamonds than you get in original equipment models.. The cost today for a Ladies President with diamond bezel and dial is over $30k...

Looks like a decent deal. I've been eyeing one of these for my wife.

5.75 inches is a short band...plan on buying more links unless your wife is very small. One other big issue is water resistance on the aftermarket bezels. Don't let your wife do the dishes with it, I see more problems with this particular feature.
