Hi I saw this 13zn with a very clean dial but is the font a bit off and I'm guessing likely a redial? Thank you!

 

The uneven border of the running seconds sub-dial is jumping out at me.

 

Yes, this is a redial. The tell that is easiest to articulate is the incorrect font of the signature. More subtle issues are the distance between the tachymeter and telemeter scales, and the short hash marks in the sub-dials. These issues, in conjunction with the pristine condition and silver dial foot, ultimately give it away. I will say that the font of the minute/second scale is well done.

Thank you for the advice. For my learning, which ones are the dial feet?

 

Here you are - circled in red for your reference

 

Thank you so much. I will have to take notice of dial foot colours from now on

 

Just to confirm, this should be brass, correct?

 

Yes, although they tend to look more copper-toned (see example below).

Thanks for going to the trouble to post a pic, really helps to illustrate the difference!
