Looks beautiful, but is it too beautiful? Redial and repainted hands? What would you say?

But, that watch is junk. 100% redial. Hands possibly fake. Movement tired.

£1300 is a ridiculous price. I wouldn’t buy it for £150.

I did look at the website and it’s full of overpriced redials - although the seller does not mention much about the watches and nothing about the dials being original/repainted/refurbished….

So, @clockoclock, full marks for checking here first.

I’m just posting one of many green vintage watches for the thread reader’s entertainment - in case it isn’t already obvious to everyone, it’s a 1956 Seamaster calendar 😀

Yeah this is the worst kind of dealer. Selling redialed, over polished crap and making no mention of the fact their dials aren’t original.
