Not knowing much about Rolex, less so about the vintage models, it just seems a bit steep for what is essentially a watch in bits.
Seller has 100%feedback with a fair bit of history so. Just a bit surprised at the price it seems to be fetching.

A Double Red does command quite a premium over the standard models. Prices are around £17-27K, depending on condition. That said, I'm not sure if the one in the link is genuine, nor whether it's worth nearly £8K in it's current condition! I guess it depends on how much needs replacing and at what cost. The dial is a bit dirty, but you probably wouldn't want to replace it, as it has the much coveted tritium markers! If it's genuine, of course ...

I guess these Rolex diving watches must be like Aston Martins in that, to me at least, they all look the same

Case back engraving looks wrong to me, GAS in particular. It was discovered in Azerbjan... its being so,d in Turkey, not worth the risk IMHO
