If the $499 dial is fake then someone has gone to a lot of effort to make it grungy and unattractive. I'm leaning towards the dial being legit, although I can't say if it's original to the watch. However, I don't like the rotating inner bezel. There are some off signs. I'm leaning towards the exterior bezel being legit. I thought the tapered bracelets weren't introduced as early as 1973, but I could be wrong. My August 73 model has a straight bracelet.
