Can you help me to authenticate this Speedmaster Mark II??

It's real. Ok dial and hands. Case brushing looks correct from the pictures which is a plus.

Not sure if the Chrono second is correct length.

maybe it's the color balance of the photos, but the chrono sweep is supposed to be orange, as are the 30 min and 12 hr sub-dial hands: and the chrono sweep does look a bit short. can't quite tell but the case looks a bit over-polished.

Under more review, I believe all the hands are wrong, and looking at it on my computer I can see the lume has also been removed from the dial.

The minute hand should extend to the red line on the outer track, as well as the chrono second hand. The hour hand also seems short. The chrono subdial hands should also be orange.

Although the case does seem to display the correct radial brushing, as for it being over polished you need a shot of the lug thickness on these to tell, and that picture is missing.

I will admit many of these out there have the wrong hands... It comes down to the asking price if you are willing to have a dial with the lume removed, and the wrong hands. I'm not even sure how to source these hands at this point. The ones on it are close and are from another model, and I would guess are service hands and might even be from Omega

I would pass... too many things need to be corrected for me. Plus the bezel printing is not as nice as I would like to see.

Crystal has serif numbers, which isn't correct I think. case looks like it hasn’t lost much metal but I would leave it for above mentioned points.

You better let that one go...case looks very polished to me ;-)
