The back is great, the observatory and the stars and the writing at the top and bottom are crisp, but the dial looks redone to me. The crosshairs don't seem to align with the star or the omega logo and they cut across the numbers which isn't right, I think they are supposed to stop before the numbers. It also looks too white. If the pic wasn't so blurry you could probably make out printing issues as well

I guess that could be lume, I originally thought it was a beveled outer end of the marker, and I'm still unsure TBH. In any case, the OP should be able to check it easily in person.

Lugs look a ok, pic has odd reflections on edges.

Sorry, I only took a crappy pic with my phone in terrible lighting. The auction pic were done through a glass cabinet.

I didn't realize that it was a waffle dial until zooming in on the recent photo. Is it common for a waffle texture to be so subtle? If everything else didn't look so good, that'd make me suspect it had an extra layer of paint, but maybe that's just how some white waffle dials are?? Or maybe it was obvious to everyone that it was a textured dial and I'm oblivious

Your last picture , when expanded, shows the delicate application of the printing( and its' raised nature) plus all the serifs in originals.

I see what you mean. Probably shadows from the tons of nicks in the crystal.
