    It's a late 60's caliber 564 and the hands are correct for that reference, although relumed. It might be a refinished dial but we need better pictures.

    The dial looks the same as mine and has a few spots due to age. I think the dial is not refinished. I will agree with Ulackfocus though on the relumed hands. Only the outer is lumed on mine and black inserts on the inner hands.

    Personally the relumed hands on this kill the look of the watch (shouldn't those hands have at least partial black inserts?)...unless your able/capable of fixing this (or have a watchmaker that can) and /or this is really cheap, I'd pass.
