Hey OF
I'm thinking about buying this piece for my father. He loves his vintage watches. Can you guys help me out with this one please?
I dont know if this one is original. Thanks!
Plus what does the SGR stand for?

The serial number is quite high for an onyx inlay dial. Also incorrect crown. Date wheel is not aligned.

Will the crown give the watch trouble? I'll service the movement if i buy but can the date alignment issue be fixed easily? or will it need a
additional parts? Thanks

Could be painted indices. Impossible to tell from photos.
