1964 Constellation with unusual star position

salve a tutti, ho una costellazione omega in oro 18kt con documenti risalenti al 1964.
ha la corona, il plexi e la fibbia con logo.
Resto perplesso dal quadrante che non riporta la scritta Swiss made (anche se qualcuno sa che non era sempre presente fino agli anni '70) e la stella è posizionata sopra la scritta della costellazione.
nella maggior parte dei casi la stella è posizionata sotto la costellazione.
qualcuno ha mai visto un quadrante simile al mio con la stella in questa posizione?
grazie

My Italian is a bit rusty, but fortunately there’s Google translate:

hi all, I have an omega constellation in 18kt gold with documents dating back to 1964.
it has the crown, the plexi and the buckle with logo.
I am perplexed by the dial that does not bear the word Swiss made (although some know it was not always present until the 1970s) and the star is positioned above the writing of the constellation.
in most cases the star is positioned below the constellation.
has anyone ever seen a dial similar to mine with the star in this position? Thank you.

Hard to say much from the low res picture, but my money's on a redial

My thoughts as well. Crosshair doesn’t look right among other things.

Welcome @Mk3
The members above are being welcomingly polite.
The dial has most definitely been repainted - hence the missing ‘Swiss made’ and odd positioning of the text in relation to the star.

Sorry! I thought I wrote in english
I made a mess with 2 different forums
thank you all.
my curiosity is: has anyone ever seen the star in that position?

The star is not far off the correct position, it’s the Constellation text which is too low.
