    Thanks Alex, still learning, how can you tell its refinished?

    FWIW listing says original dial :)

    Sorry if I sounded abrupt! :)

    I guess it could be original.. (not very detailed pics) There are discepancies between the "Constellation and Officially Certified" fonts look unbalanced, but i'm not well versed on this particular model..

    Edit: was it the price or this model that attracted you to it?

    I'm with Alex - difficult to make much put, but I think the omega applied logo shouldn't be sat on top of the word automatic.

    The model, of course was in love with old sparky you sold recently but 'twas a bit out of my budget, so can't say the price isn't important !


    Aye, see that now, found a few references on the web and as Alex correctly noted the font is wonky too . . .

    My eyes, my eyes, my bleeding eyes!

    Wrong crown and hands, too. If you have a return privledge, I'd recommend taking advantage of it.

    The price was good for one in original condition. Count on a couple of hundred more for a pie-pan Ref. 168.025.

    Since the fonts, dial and hands were the same on these, here's mine:

    Just LMK when you'd like to start counting my money for that ^

    Luckily I got good advise here before accepting the eBay seller's counter....
