Thinking about buying this GMT. Buying from an online dealer. I asked to see the movement and open the watch up but apparently it’s a hsssle? Is this an unreasonable ask? Does this watch look ok?

My bro in law bought a 1973 GMT II Pepsi, and both ADs near us refused (or were not allowed) to open the caseback. I ended up just going to a watchmaker to just open the back to see the movement quality and performance. I don’t think this is unusual, however you must know your seller.
