Hi every one
I bought this Chronostop, which is not in pristine condition (euphemism) but that as a very nice dial and the case that altough seems polished it is still in good condition structurally also the caliber etc is pretty nice for what I can see ant the watch works.
BUT it has a white second hands !!!
It does not seem a faded orange hand to me and if it has been substituted I cannot figure out from which reference.
Any idea opinion. Is any one aware if there were any Chronostop produced with white hands

Hand should be orange, so someone has swapped it for an incorrect one likely.

So I did some research and I found two possible sources the Seamaster Jedi or the certain models of the seamaster 145006 and 145016. Although it seems an unlikely sweep to me probably there were service hands in white.
