Lot 172 in Watches of Knightsbridge's upcoming September auction is a Longines 13ZN. The dial is claimed to be original, according to the condition report. I strongly disagree with this claim. Below is an original dial from the era for comparison. Note, for example, the design of the sub-dials. Another glaring issue is the red minute track of the WoK example.

I agree. When I say it I immediately thought redial. It just doesn't look right.
