It is slang for "legitimate" or "kosher". If something is said to be "legit" that means it is the genuine article. So if you buy a cheap branded watch at a car boot sale, chances are it is not "legit" but is a "knock-off". But if you buy one of the same brand from a reputable high street jeweller, it probably is "legit".
It is different from "leg it", which means "run away fast". So if you were to sell someone something that is not "legit" then it is very likely you would then "leg it" before they found out.
